contact then 160th division on circular scale is exactly coinciding with the main scale line, and that
the zero of main scale is not visible. When thickness of sheet is measured with screw gauge then
main scale reading is 0.6 mm and 100th division coincide with the main scale line. The thickness of
copper sheet is x × 10–5 m.

3) A rigid rectangular frame made of thin wire can move along a smooth horizontal surface to which
a thin, infinitely long straight wire is attached. The figure shows a top view of this system. Initially,
the currents in the wire and in the frame are zero. The frame is at rest in such a position that one of
its pairs of sides is parallel to the wire, and the distance between the wire and the side of the frame
closest to it is many times greater than the entire dimensions of the frame. The current in the wire is
increased to a certain maximum value so quickly that the displacement of the frame during the
increase in current can be neglected. Subsequently, the current in the wire is maintained constant.
It turned out that at the moment the current in the wire reaches its maximum value, the speed of the
frame was equal to v0. The inductance of the loop can be neglected, and its resistance can be
considered constant. The frame speed is v0/n after a very long time after the current in the wire

reaches its maximum value. Find n.
