The diameter of a spherical bob is measured using a vernier callipers. $9$ divisions of the main scale, in the vernier callipers, are equal to $10$ divisions of vernier scale. One main scale division is $1\, {mm}$. The main scale reading is $10\, {mm}$ and $8^{\text {th }}$ division of vernier scale was found to coincide exactly with one of the main scale division. If the given vernier callipers has positive zero error of $0.04\, {cm}$, then the radius of the bob is $...... \,\times 10^{-2} \,{cm}$
