Thickness of a pencil measured by a screw gauge


Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 311 People


Thickness of a pencil measured by using a screw gauge(least count.001 cm) comes out to be 0.802cm. The percentage error in the measurement is

Answered by admin @



Given that:

Thickness t=0.802cm

Least count=0.001 cm
now error in measuring t=(0.802+-0.001)
%age error=0.001/0.802×100%
=0.125%
