Q.1. A Screw Guage gives the following readings when used to measure the diameter of a wire.
Main scale reading = 0.0 mm
Circular scale reading = 52 divisions
Given that: 1 mm on the main scale corresponds to 100 divisions of the circular scale.
The diameter of the wire from the above data is: [2021]
A: 0.026 cm
B: 0.005 cm
C: 0.52 cm
D: 0.052 cm
Ans: D
Solution: Diameter of wire,
Q.2. If force [F], acceleration [A] and time [T] are chosen as the fundamental physical quantities. Find the dimensions of energy. [2021]
A: [F][A][T-1]
B: [F][A-1][T]
C: [F][A][T]
D: [F][A][T2]
Ans: D
Solution:
Q.3. If E and G respectively denote energy and gravitational constant, then E/G has the dimensions of : [2021]
A: [M] [L0] [T0]
B: [M2] [L–2] [T–1]
C: [M2] [L–1] [T0]
D: [M] [L–1] [T–1]
Ans: C
Solution:
E = energy = [ML2T–2]
G = Gravitational constant = [M–1L3T–2]
So,
E/G = [E]/[G]
= ML2T–2/M–1L3T–2
= [M2L-1T0]
Q.4. Taking into account of the significant figures, what is the value of 9.99 m-0.0099 m? [2020]
A: 9.980 m
B: 9.9 m
C: 9.9801 m
D: 9.98 m
Ans: D
As per rule
least no. of place in decimal portion of any number 9.98
Q.5. In an experiment, the percentage of error occurred in the measurement of physical quantities A, B, C and D are 1%, 2%, 3% and 4% respectively. Then the maximum percentage of error in the measurement X, where will be [2019]
A:
B: 16 %
C: -10 %
D: 10 %
Ans: B
Given
= 2% + 1%+ 1%+ 12%= 16%
Q.6. A student measured the diameter of a small steel ball using a screw gauge of least count 0.001 cm. The main scale reading is 5 mm and zero of circular scale division coincides with 25 divisions above the reference level. If screw gauge has a zero error of – 0.004 cm, the correct diameter of the ball is :- [2018]
A: 0.521 cm
B: 0.525 cm
C: 0.053 cm
D: 0.529 cm
Ans: D
Solution:
Reading of screw gauge
= MSR + VSR × LC + zero error
= 0.5 cm + 25 × 0.001 cm + 0.004 cm
= 0.529 cm

B: [E V-2 T-1]
C: [E V-1 T-2]
D: [E V-2 T-2]
Ans: D
Solution:
Q.9. If force (F), velocity (V) and time(T) are taken as fundamental units, then the dimensions of mass are: [2014]
A: [F V−1 T−1]
B: [F V−1 T]
C: [F V T−1]
