38.
Offsets are measured with an accuracy of 1 in 40. If the point on the paper from both sources of error (due to angular and measurement errors) is not to exceed 0.05 cm on a scale of 1 cm = 20 m, the maximum length of offset should be limited to
14.14
28.28 m
200 m
none of these.
Answer: Option

Due to angular & linear sin45 = 0.7 then it is 1.414.

Abdus samad khan said:   4 years ago
Cosec = 1/sin.
Than sin45 =.707.
Cosec = 1/.707 = 1.414.

How come 1.414? Please explain the answer in detail.

Ganpati Patel said:   10 years ago
L = s*r*error/1.414.

= 20*40*0.05/1.414 = 28.28 m.

s*r/(40*1.414).

= (20*40)/56.56.

= 14.14 answer.

L = 0.05"40"20*14.14 = 28.28 m.

Mention the formula clearly to calculate.

Sachin patil said:   5 years ago
What does 1 in 40 refer? Please explain.

L = 0.05*s*r/1.414 = 28.28 m.

How it will come?
