Updated On: May 7, 2026
- 0.01 mm
- 0.25 mm
- 0.5 mm
- 1.0 mm
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
L.C. \(=\frac{\text{Pitch}}{\text{Number of division on circular scale}}\)
\(\Rightarrow 0.01\,mm=\frac{\text{pitch}}{50}\)
\(\Rightarrow\) pitch \(=0.5\,mm\)

- A student measured the diameter of a small steel ball using a screw gauge of least count $0.001\, cm$. The main scale reading is $5\, mm$ and zero of circular scale division coincides with $25$ divisions above the reference level. If screw gauge has a zero error of - $0.004\, cm$, the correct diameter of the ball is
- A student measures the distance traversed in free fall of a body, initially at rest, in a given time. He uses this data to estimate $g$, the acceleration due to gravity. If the maximum percentage errors in measurement of the distance and the time are $e_1 $ and $e_2$ respectively, the percentage error in the estimation of $g$ is

Physical World
The physical world includes the complications of the natural world around us. It is a type of analysis of the physical world around us to understand how it works. The fundamental forces that control nature are:
- Gravitational Force is a universal force that exists as an outcome of mutual attraction between any two objects with respect to their masses.
- Electromagnetic Force can be understood as the force that is present between the charged particles. The force is stated by Coulomb’s law.
- Strong Nuclear Force is the force that ties the protons and neutrons in a nucleus. Of all the elemental forces in nature, a strong nuclear force is the strongest as its name suggests.
- Weak Nuclear Force can only be noticed in some of the nuclear processes such as the beta decay of the nucleus.
