$A$ screw gauge has $50$ divisions on its circular scale. The circular scale is $4$ units ahead of the pitch scale marking,prior to use. Upon one complete rotation of the circular scale,a displacement of $0.5\, mm$ is noticed on the pitch scale. The nature of zero error involved,and the least count of the screw gauge,are respectively

$A$ spectrometer gives the following reading when used to measure the angle of a prism.
Main scale reading : $58.5^{\circ}$
Vernier scale reading : $09$ divisions
Given that $1$ division on the main scale corresponds to $0.5^{\circ}$. The total number of divisions on the Vernier scale is $30$,which matches $29$ divisions of the main scale. The angle of the prism from the above data is ....... . (in $^{\circ}$)

In a Vernier calipers, when both jaws touch each other, the zero of the Vernier scale is shifted to the right of the zero of the main scale and the $7^{th}$ Vernier division coincides with a main scale division. If the value of $1$ main scale division is $1 \text{ mm}$ and there are $10$ Vernier scale divisions, then the Vernier caliper has

$N$ divisions on the main scale of a vernier calliper coincide with $(N + 1)$ divisions of the vernier scale. If each division of the main scale is $a$ units,then the least count of the instrument is:
