In screw gauge the barrel is tapered and has 100 or 50 equal divisions on it. This is called the
Pitch scale
Ordinary scale
Head scale
Least count
Pitch of the screw is 1 mm. Head scale has 100 divisions. Give the Least Count.

When the zero division of Head Scale is above the index line, the error and correction are :
-ve,+ve
+ve,-ve
+ve, +ve
-ve, -ve
The reference or index line can be divided into some convenient units or divisions and it is called
When a screw gauge of Least count 0.01 mm is used to measure the diameter of a nail, the P.S.R. is found to be 1.5 mm, and H.S.R is 18. Find the diameter of the nail ?
