Physics-Screw Gauge

NEET Physics Screw Gauge Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 12

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-I Column-II (a) Backlash Error (i) Consistency in reading measurements (b) Pitch of Screw (ii) Distance moved by the screw per rotation (c) Circular Scale (iii) Represents divisions on the screw gauge (d) Linear Scale (iv) Affected by screw-nut fit

Choose the correct matching:

A

a-iv, b-ii, c-iii, d-i

B

a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii

C

a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv

D

a-i, b-iii, c-iv, d-ii

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Backlash error occurs when there is a looseness in the screw-nut fit, affecting measurement precision as stated in the context. The pitch of the screw is defined as the distance moved by the screw for one complete rotation, which is critical for accurate measurement. The circular scale indicates the divisions, while the linear scale provides consistency in reading measurements.
