The vernier scale of a travelling microscope has $50$ divisions which coincide with $49$ main scale divisions. If each main scale division is $0.5 \ mm$,calculate the minimum inaccuracy in the measurement of distance. (in $mm$)

The length of a cylinder measured by a Vernier caliper is given by the following observations: $3.29 \, cm, 3.28 \, cm, 3.29 \, cm, 3.31 \, cm, 3.28 \, cm, 3.27 \, cm, 3.29 \, cm, 3.30 \, cm$. The most accurate length of the cylinder is ........ $cm$.

There are two Vernier calipers,both of which have $1 \ cm$ divided into $10$ equal divisions on the main scale. The Vernier scale of one of the calipers $(C_1)$ has $10$ equal divisions that correspond to $9$ main scale divisions. The Vernier scale of the other caliper $(C_2)$ has $10$ equal divisions that correspond to $11$ main scale divisions. The readings of the two calipers are shown in the figure. The measured values (in $cm$) by calipers $C_1$ and $C_2$,respectively,are

Consider the diameter of a spherical object being measured with the help of a Vernier callipers. Suppose its $10$ Vernier Scale Divisions $(V.S.D.)$ are equal to its $9$ Main Scale Divisions $(M.S.D.)$. The least division on the $M.S.$ is $0.1 \ cm$ and the zero of $V.S.$ is at $x=0.1 \ cm$ when the jaws of the Vernier callipers are closed. If the main scale reading for the diameter is $M=5 \ cm$ and the number of the coinciding vernier division is $8$,the measured diameter after zero error correction is: (in $cm$)
