Answer:

Correct Answer: 24.( b )

Solution:

  1. For vernier $C_1$,

$ 10 \mathrm{VSD}=9 \mathrm{MSD}=9 \mathrm{~mm} $

$1 \mathrm{VSD}=0.9 \mathrm{~mm}$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{LC}=1 \mathrm{MSD}-1 \mathrm{VSD}=1 \mathrm{~mm}-0.9 \mathrm{~mm}=0.1 \mathrm{~mm}$

Reading of $C_1=\mathrm{MSR}+(\mathrm{VSR})$ (LC)

$ =28 \mathrm{~mm}+(7)(0.1) $

Reading of $C_1=28.7 \mathrm{~mm}=2.87 \mathrm{~cm}$

For vernier $C_2$ : the vernier $C_2$ is abnormal

So, we have to find the reading form basics.

The point where both of the marks are matching :

distance measured from main scale $=$ distance measured from vernier scale

$ 28 \mathrm{~mm}+(1 \mathrm{~mm})(8)=(28 \mathrm{~mm}+x)+(1.1 \mathrm{~mm})(7) $

Solving we get, $x=0.3 \mathrm{~mm}$

So, reading of $\quad C_2=28 \mathrm{~mm}+0.3 \mathrm{~mm}=2.83 \mathrm{~cm}$
