In a screw gauge, $5$ complete rotations of circular scale give $1.5\, mm$ reading on linear scale. Circular scale has $50$ divisions. Least count of the screw gauge is
A
$0.006 \,mm$
B
$0.003\, mm$
C
$0.015\, mm$
D
$0.03\, mm$
Solution
Pitch $=\frac{1.5}{5}=0.3 \mathrm{mm}$
Least count $=\frac{0.3}{50}=0.006 \mathrm{mm}$
