In a screw gauge,5complete rotations of the screw cause it to move a linear distance of0.25 cm. There are100circular scale divisions. The thickness of a wire measured by this screw gauge gives a reading of4main scale divisions and30circular scale divisions. Assuming negligible error, the thickness of the wire is

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

The Least count=0.255×100 cm=5×10-4 cm.

Reading =4×0.05 cm+30×5×10-4 cm
              =0.2+0.0150 cm=0.2150 cm
