Answer 1

The minor measurement of the vernier scale is 19.55 mm.

Minor measurement of the vernier division

The minor measurement of the vernier divisions is calculated as follows;

minor measurement = main scale measurement / 20

minor measurement = 391 mm / 20 = 19.55 mm

Answer 2

Solution :

As we know that,

• $\boxed{\bf{ Minor \: measurement \: = \: \frac{least \: count \: on \: main \: scale}{ No. \:of \: divisions \: on \: vernier \: scale} }} \: \red\bigstar$

As there are 39 mm divisions of main scale and 20 divisions of vernier scale.

So let's apply the values!

$\implies \: \sf{ Minor \: measurement \: = \: \dfrac{39}{20} } \\ \\ \implies \: \red{\sf{ Minor \: measurement \: = \: 1.95}}$
