The main scale of a vernier calliper has \(n\) divisions/cm. \(n\) divisions of the vernier scale coincide with \((n-1)\) divisions of the main scale. The least count of the vernier calliper is:
1. \(\dfrac{1}{(n+1)(n-1)}\) cm
2. \(\dfrac{1}{n}\) cm
3. \(\dfrac{1}{n^{2}}\) cm
4. \(\dfrac{1}{(n)(n+1)}\) cm
In which of the following, the number of significant figures is different from that in the others?

In an experiment, the height of an object measured by a vernier callipers having least count of \(0.01~\text{cm}\) is found to be \(5.72~\text{cm}\). When no object is there between jaws of this vernier callipers, the reading of the main scale is \(0.1\) cm and the reading of the vernier scale is \(0.3~\text{mm}\). The correct height of the object is:
1. \( 5.72 ~\text{cm} \)
2. \( 5.59~\text{cm} \)
3. \( 5.85~\text{cm} \)
4. \( 5.69~\text{cm} \)

1. | \( 0.15~ \text{cm}^3 \) | 2. | \( 0.1443~ \text{cm}^3 \) |
3. | \( 0.14~ \text{cm}^3 \) | 4. | \( 0.144 ~\text{cm}^3\) |
Consider a screw gauge without any zero error. What will be the final reading corresponding to the final state as shown?

3. | \(1.0\) mm | 4. | \(0.01\) mm |
1. | \(9.98\) m | 2. | \(9.980\) m |
3. | \(9.9\) m | 4. | \(9.9801\) m |
The velocity \(v\) of a particle at time \(t\) is given by \({v}={at}+\frac{{b}}{{t}+{c}}.\) The dimensions of \({a}\), \({b}\), and \({c}\) are respectively:
1. \( {\left[{LT}^{-2}\right],[{L}],[{T}]} \)

3. | \( 663.8 \) | 4. | \(663.82\) |
The mass and volume of a body are \(4.237~\text{grams}\) and \(2.5~\text{cm}^3\), respectively. The density of the material of the body in correct significant figures will be:
1. \(1.6048~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
2. \(1.69~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
3. \(1.7~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
4. \(1.695~\text{grams cm}^{-3}\)
