The least count of a stopwatch is generally _______.

Answer 1

Least Count: The smallest and most precise value that can be measured with any measuring equipment is its least count.

Stop Watch: Stopwatches are the tools used to measure time, typically for brief events that last only a short while.

1. A stopwatch generally has the least count of $0.5seconds$.
2. Although different stopwatches can have different least values.
3. The Revolution of a stopwatch is the total circular angle which is equal to $2\mathrm{\pi }$.
4. The time period is the total time taken for a complete revolution which is $1min$.

Thus, the least count of a stopwatch is generally $0.5seconds$.
