In a Vernier calipers, when both jaws touch each other, zero of the Vernier scale is shifted to the right of zero of the main scale and 7th Vernier division coincides with a main scale reading. If the value of 1 main scale division is 1 mm and there are 10 Vernier scale divisions, then the Vernier caliper has
Answer: (C)
Solution
LC = 1mm/10 = 0.01 cm. Since the Vernier zero is shifted right
