        Solution 2:<\/strong><\/span>

            \nThe ratchet is used in a screw gauge to hold the object under measurement gently between the studs.<\/p>\n

            Solution 9:<\/strong><\/span>
            \nIf the zero of the circular scale does not coincide with the zero of the main scale (pitch scale), this is known as zero error. There are two types of zero error –<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. If the zero of the circular scale remains below the line of graduation then it is called positive zero error<\/li>\n
            2. If the zero of the circular scale lies above the line of graduation then it is called negative zero error
              \nFor positive zero error correction, the zero error should always be subtracted from the observed reading
              \nFor negative zero error correction, the zero error must be added to the observed reading.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              • A circular scale divided into 50 or 100 equal parts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                Solution 11:<\/strong><\/span>
                \nDue to constant use, there is space for the play of screw gauge but gradually this space increases with the use or wear and tear, so that when the screw is moved by rotating it in some direction, it slips in the nut and does not cover any linear distance for some rotation of the screw head. The error due to this is known as backlash error.
                \nIt is avoided by turning the screw always in the same direction.<\/p>\n

                Solution 12:<\/strong><\/span>

                • Place the wire in between the studs. Turn the ratchet clockwise so as to hold the wire gently in between the studs. Record the main scale reading.<\/li>\n
                • Now record the division of circular scale that coincides with the base line of main scale. This circular scale division multiplied by least count will give circular scale reading.<\/li>\n
                • The observed diameter is obtained by adding the circular scale reading to the main scale reading. Subtract the zero error if any, with its proper sign, from the observed diameter to get the true diameter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  \nIf the zero of the circular scale lies above the line of graduation then it is called negative zero error. When there is negative zero error, then the instrument reads less than the actual reading. Therefore in order to get the correct reading, the zero error should always be added to the observed reading.<\/p>\n

                                    \nNumber of threads =20
                                    \nDistance covered in 20 threads = 10 mm
                                    \nPitch of the screw gauge = 10\/20 =0.5 mm
                                    \nNo of divisions on circular scale = 50
                                    \nLeast count = pitch\/no of divisions = 0.01 mm<\/p>\n
