h = sagitta of the spherical surface.
Procedure :
i) Press the spherometer on a plane paper so that it produces impressions of the tips of its three legs on
the paper.Measure the distance d1, d2 , d3 between the three marks of the legs. Hence find the mean
distance d between the legs.
ii) Find the least count of the spherometer and Place the spherometer on the plane glass plate.
Rotate the screw till the tip of the screw just touches the glass surface. This can be ensured by
observing that the tip of the screw coincides with its image in the glass plate.
iii) Note down the main scale reading (A), by observing position of the edge of the circular scale on the
main scale. Note circular scale reading (B) by observing the circular scale division coinciding with
the edge of the main scale hence find the total reading (A + B). In this way, take three observations
and calculate its mean.
iv) Raise the screw through some distance. Place the spherometer on a concave surface / convex surface
of the watch glass. Rotate the screw so that its tip and all legs of the spherometer touch the surface.
Again note down the main scale reading and circular scale reading hence find the total reading.
