One main scale division of a vernier callipers is $a \ cm$ and $n^{\text{th}}$ division of the vernier scale coincides with $(n-1)^{\text{th}}$ division of the main scale. The least count of the callipers in $mm$ is

$A$ steel wire of diameter $0.5 \text{ mm}$ and Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{11} \text{ N m}^{-2}$ carries a load of mass $M$. The length of the wire with the load is $1.0 \text{ m}$. $A$ vernier scale with $10$ divisions is attached to the end of this wire. Next to the steel wire is a reference wire to which a main scale,of least count $1.0 \text{ mm}$,is attached. The $10$ divisions of the vernier scale correspond to $9$ divisions of the main scale. Initially,the zero of vernier scale coincides with the zero of main scale. If the load on the steel wire is increased by $1.2 \text{ kg}$,the vernier scale division which coincides with a main scale division is. . . . Take $g = 10 \text{ m s}^{-2}$ and $\pi = 3.2$.

If $50$ Vernier divisions are equal to $49$ main scale divisions of a travelling microscope and one smallest reading of main scale is $0.5 \,mm$, the Vernier constant of travelling microscope is:

The main scale of a vernier caliper reads in millimeters and its vernier scale is divided into $8$ divisions,which coincide with $5$ divisions of the main scale. When the two jaws of the instrument touch each other,the zero of the vernier scale coincides with the zero of the main scale. $A$ rod is placed between the two jaws. It is observed that the zero of the vernier scale lies just to the left of the $36^{th}$ division of the main scale and the fourth division of the vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. The measured value is .......... $cm$.

In a screw gauge, when the circular scale is given five complete rotations, it moves linearly by $2.5 \text{ mm}$. If the circular scale has $100$ divisions, the least count of the screw gauge is . . . . . . $\text{mm}$.

$A$ specially designed Vernier calliper has the main scale least count of $1 \,mm$. On the Vernier scale,there are $10$ equal divisions and they match with $11$ main scale divisions. Then,the least count of the Vernier calliper is ........... $mm$.
