Question

The circular head of a screw gauge is divided into 50 divisions and the screw moves 2 mm ahead in one revolution of circular head. The least count of the screw gauge is0.001 cm0.002 cm0.004 cm0.005 cm

Solution

The least count of a screw gauge is calculated using the formula:

Least Count = Pitch / Number of divisions on circular scale

Given in the question: Pitch (advance of screw in one revolution) = 2 mm = 0.2 cm Number of divisions on circular scale = 50

Substituting these values into the formula:

Least Count = 0.2 cm / 50 = 0.004 cm

So, the least count of the screw gauge is 0.004 cm.
