The pitch of a screw gauge is \(1~\)mm and there are \(100\) divisions on the circular scale. While measuring the diameter of a wire, the linear scale reads \(1\) mm and \(47\)th division on the circular scale coincides with the reference line. The length of the wire is \(5.6\) cm. Curved surface area (in cm2) of the wire in appropriate number of significant figures will be:

1. \(2.4\) cm2

2. \(2.56\) cm2

3. \(2.6\) cm2

4. \(2.8\) cm2

A screw gauge has some zero error but its value is unknown. We have two identical rods. When the first rod is inserted in the screw, the state of the instrument is shown by diagram (I). When both the rods are inserted together in series then the state is shown by the diagram (II). What is the zero error of the instrument? \(1~\text{msd}= 100~\text{csd}= 1~\text{mm}\)

                                 
1. \(-0.16~\text{mm}\)
2. \(+0.16~\text{mm}\)
3. \(+0.14~\text{mm}\)
4. \(-0.14~\text{mm}\)
