Question

The diameter of a sphere is measured using a vernier caliper whose 9 divisions of main scale are equal to 10 divisions of vernier scale. The shortest division on the main scale is equal to 1 mm. The main scale reading is 2 cm and second division of vernier scale coincides with a division on main scale. If mass of the sphere is 8.635 g, the density of the sphere is:

Select the correct option:

$2.5 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^3$

$1.7 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^3$

$2.2 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^3$

$2.0 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^3$
