Two full turns of the circular scale of a screw gauge cover a distance of $1\ mm$ on its main scale. The total number of divisions on the circular scale is $50$. Further, it is found that the screw gauge has a zero error of $- 0.03\ mm$. While measuring the diameter of a thin wire, a student notes the main scale reading of $3\ mm$ and the number of circular scale divisions in line with the main scale as $35$. The diameter of the wire is ....... $mm$

The energy of a system as a function of time $t$ is given as $E(t)=A^2 \exp (-\alpha t)$, where $\alpha=0.2 s ^{-1}$. The measurement of $A$ has an error of $1.25 \%$. If the error in the measurement of time is $1.50 \%$, the percentage error in the value of $E(t)$ at $t=5 s$ is
The frequency $(v)$ of an oscillating liquid drop may depend upon radius $(r)$ of the drop, density $(\rho)$ of liquid and the surface tension $(s)$ of the liquid as : $v=r^{ a } \rho^{ b } s ^{ c }$. The values of $a , b$ and $c$ respectively are
A student measured the diameter of a wire using a screw gauge with the least count $0.001\, cm$ and listed the measurements. The measured value should be recorded as
