Question

Explain a method to find the thickness of a hollow tea cup What is the answer

Answer 1

The thickness of a hollow teacup can be measure using a specialised instrument known as screw gauge. It is characterised by two jaws with a scale attached to one jaw. The jaws can be screwed shut or open, and the object to be measured should be placed in between.

 

The normal scale measures distance in centimetres, while the circular scale can be moved in a rotational manner and measure distance in millimetres.  

 

On average, the thickness of a teacup will be a few millimetres. Another instrument which can be used is the vernier callipers.
