Question

What is the pth division of the Vernier scale .what is the formula for the least count (at least two)

Answer 1

Answer:

Vernier caliper least counts formula is calculated by dividing the smallest reading of the main scale with the total number of divisions of the vernier scale.LC of vernier caliper is the difference between one smallest reading of the main scale and one smallest reading of vernier scale which is 0.1 mm 0r 0.01 cm.

Jmicrometer least count can be calculated by below formula ie; = Pitch((least division value)/ number of divisions on the scale. = 1/100 = 0.01mm. So least count of a Micrometer is 0.01mm.o
