A vernier callipers has \(20\) divisions on the vernier scale, which coincides with \(19^{\text {th }}\) division on the main scale. The least count of the instrument is \(0.1 \mathrm{~mm}\). One main scale division is equal to _______ \(\mathrm{mm}\).
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(20 \mathrm{VSD}=19 \mathrm{MSD}\)
\(1 \mathrm{VSD}=\frac{19}{20} \mathrm{MSD}\)
\(\text { L.C. }=1 \mathrm{MSD}-1 \mathrm{VSD}\)
\(0.1 \mathrm{~mm}=1 \mathrm{MSD}-\frac{19}{20} \mathrm{MSD}\)
\(0.1=\frac{1}{20} \mathrm{MSD}\)
\(1 \mathrm{MSD}=2 \mathrm{~mm}\)
