Which of the following has the least count of 0.001 cm?
A. Screw gauge
B. Measuring tape
C. Vernier calliper
D. Metre scale
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
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 #2
A 60 W bulb is used for 5 hours daily. How much electrical energy is consumed by the bulb in 30 days?
A. 0.9 kWh
B. 90 kWh
C. 900 kWh
D. 9 kWh

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Electrical energy (E) = Power (P) × Time (t). Power = 60 W = 0.06 kW. Time per day = 5 hours. Total time in 30 days = 5 × 30 = 150 hours. Energy = 0.06 kW × 150 h = 9 kWh (or 9 units of electricity). One kWh is the commercial unit of energy.
