I. Diameter of a small ball bearing.
II. Thickness of a pieces of paper.
III. Diameter of a measuring cylinder.
IV. Length of a piece of wire.
Which of the above can be measured using a micrometer screw gauge?

A.

I, II and IV only

B.

I and II only

C.

II and III only

D.

III and IV only

Correct answer is B

Of all the instruments used in measuring length,the micrometer screw gauge has the highest reading accuracy (0.01 mm), and is therefore used in measuring very small length such as diameter of a small ball bearing, and thickness of a piece of paper.
