Which of the following has the least count of 0.001 cm? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Which of the following has the least count of 0.001 cm?
A. Vernier calliper
B. Measuring tape
C. Screw gauge
D. Metre scale
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Screw gauge typically has least count 0.001 cm (0.01 mm). Vernier calliper least count 0.01 cm. Metre scale 0.1 cm. So screw gauge most precise.

Question #1
Electric power P = VI. For 60W, 120V bulb, current is:
A. 2 A
B. 180 A
C. 7200 A
D. 0.5 A

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
I = P/V = 60/120 = 0.5 A. Direct power formula application. Memory tip: 'I = P/V for resistive loads; always use consistent units'. Basic electricity numerical frequently tested in competitive exams to verify formula application and unit handling.

Question #3
The magnifying power of a simple microscope is maximum when the image is formed at
A. 2F
B. Focus
C. Infinity
D. Near point

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
M = 1 + D/f when image at near point (D = 25 cm). For infinity, M = D/f. So max at near point.
