The value of each main scale divisions is half a degree(30') .
The number of vernier scale divisions is 30.
29 main scale divisions are divided into 30 vernier scale divisions (30 VSD = 29 MSD )
Therefore value of 1 VSD = 29/30 MSD.
Least Count (L.C.) = 1MSD - 1VSD
= 1MSD - 29/30 MSD
= 1/30 MSD
= 1/30 x 30'
(L.C.) = 1' (1 minute)
Finding least count of spectrometer
1. Count the total number of division on the vernier scale, say, n. Note the smallest
division on the circular scale in minutes, say, m minutes.
2. The least count is the smallest division divided by the number of divisions on the
vernier, i.e., it is m
n minutes.
Hi, heres how you calculate least count of a micrometer. Use the given formula: Least Count (L. C) = Pitch/no. of divisions on micrometer barrel(thimble) where, Pitch = distance travelled by thimble on linear scale in one rotation. Hi, heres how you calculate least count of a micrometer.

Generally least count of micrometer varies instrument to instrument.. But common micrometers which are used in institute level laboratories have least count of 0.0001mm
look when u start ur stop watch if u get reading as 0.00 , then the least value measured by watch wiil be 0.01 ....which is ur least count...

0.01mm
The least count of a spectrometer is the smallest change in wavelength or frequency that can be detected or measured by the device. It is typically determined by the resolution or accuracy of the instrument and can vary depending on the specific model or design of the spectrometer.
A spectrometer is a scientific instrument used to measure properties of light over a specific portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The least count of a spectrometer is the smallest change in wavelength or frequency detectable by the instrument. To take measurements with a spectrometer, you would typically calibrate the instrument using known standards and then analyze the light source you are interested in by measuring its intensity at different wavelengths or frequencies.
The formula to calculate the least count of a micrometer is: Least count = Pitch of screw gauge / Number of divisions on circular scale
The least count of an analytical balance is typically 0.1 mg. This means that the balance can measure differences in mass as small as 0.1 mg.

The least count of the micrometer screw can be calculated using the formula given below: Least count = 0.01 mm

pitch /no of divisions of micrometer barrel
The least count of a screw gauge is calculated by dividing the pitch of the screw by the number of divisions on the circular scale. The formula is Least Count = Pitch / Number of divisions on the circular scale.
To calculate the least count of a clock, divide the smallest measurement unit of the clock by the total number of divisions on the scale. For example, if the smallest measurement unit is 0.1 seconds and there are 10 divisions on the scale, the least count would be 0.1 seconds divided by 10, which equals 0.01 seconds.
