Solution

The correct option is C Screw gauge
Screw gauge, also called micrometer, has 2 threads per mm, and thus one complete revolution moves the spindle through a distance of 0.5 millimeter. The longitudinal line on the frame is graduated with 1 mm divisions and 0.5 mm subdivisions. The thimble has 50 graduations, each being 0.01 mm (one-hundredth of a mm).
