A screw gauge with a pitch of 0.5 mm and a circular scale with 50 divisions is used to measure the thickness of a thin sheet of Aluminium. Before starting the measurement. it is found that when the two jaws of the screw gauge are brought in contact, the 45th division coincides with the main scale line and that the zero of the main scale is barely visible. What is the thickness of the sheet, if the main scale reading is 0.5mm and the 25th division coincides with the main scale line?


A) 0.75mm

B) 0.80mm

C) 0.70 mm

D) 0.50mm

The box of a pinhole camera of length L has a hole of radius a. I t is assumed that when the hole is illuminated by a parallel beam of light of wavelength λ the spread of the spot (obtained on the opposite wall of the camera) is the sum of its geometrical spread and the spread due to diffraction. The spot would then have its minimum size (say bmin) when


A) $a=\frac{\lambda^{2}}{L}$ and $b_{min}=(\frac{2\lambda^{2}}{L})$

B) $a=\sqrt{\lambda L}$ and $b_{min}=(\frac{2\lambda^{2}}{L})$

C) $a=\sqrt{\lambda L}$ and $b_{min}=\sqrt{4\lambda L}$

D) $a=\frac{\lambda^{2}}{L}$ and $b_{min}=\sqrt{4\lambda L}$
