The main scale reading is \(-1\) mm when there is no object between the jaws. In the vernier calipers, \(9\) main scale division matches with \(10\) vernier scale divisions. Assume the edge of the Vernier scale as the '\(0\)' of the vernier. The thickness of the object using the defected vernier calipers will be:

         
1. \(12.2~\text{mm}\)
2. \(1.22~\text{mm}\)
3. \(12.3~\text{mm}\)
4. \(12.4~\text{mm}\)

The pressure on a square plate is measured by measuring the force on the plate and the length of the sides of the plate by using the formula P=Fl2 . If the maximum errors in the measurement of force and length are 4% and 2% respectively, then the maximum error in the measurement of pressure is

 

1.  1%
2.  2%
3.  8%
4.  10%

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. \(-0.14~\text{mm}\)
