Key Topics to Revise
1
3.1 Vernier Callipers
- Vernier callipers measure lengths with precision up to 0.01 cm (0.1 mm)
- Consists of main scale, vernier scale, and measuring jaws for external, internal, and depth measurements
- Principle: n VSD = (n-1) MSD where n divisions of vernier scale coincide with (n-1) main scale divisions
2
3.2 Screw Gauge (Micrometer Screw)
- Screw gauge measures very small lengths with precision up to 0.001 cm (0.01 mm)
- Based on micrometer screw principle: linear motion proportional to rotational motion
- Consists of U-shaped frame, fixed stud, movable screw, linear scale (pitch scale), and circular scale
3
3.3 Determination of 'g' using Simple Pendulum
- Simple pendulum: small bob suspended by inextensible thread, oscillating under gravity
- Time period independent of mass and amplitude (for small oscillations < 15°)
- Equivalent length L = l + r, where l is string length and r is radius of bob
4
3.4 Young's Modulus by Searle's Method
- Measures Young's modulus of elasticity for wire materials
- Uses two identical wires: one experimental (B) and one reference (A)
- Reference wire carries constant load to remain taut
