A screw gauge gives the following readings when used to measure the diameter of a wire
Main scale reading : $\displaystyle 0$ mm
Circular scale reading : $\displaystyle 52$ divisions
Given that $\displaystyle 1$ mm on main scale corresponds to $\displaystyle 100$ divisions on the circular scale. The diameter of the wire from the above data is :
