The answer to the first question about the resolution of the hand dial on the table of a vertical milling machine is the second option: 0.001 inches.

Explanation for each option:

  • 0.0001 inches: This is typically too fine a resolution for a standard milling machine hand dial.
  • 0.001 inches: This is a common resolution for hand dials on milling machines, allowing for precise adjustments.
  • 0.010 inches: This resolution is coarser and less common for precise milling operations.
  • 0.100 inches: This is much too coarse for typical milling machine operations.

The answer to the second question about the distance the table must move to align the center of the spindle with the edge of the workpiece when using an edge finder with a diameter of 0.200 inches is the first option: 0.100 inches.

Explanation for each option:

  • 0.100 inches: This is the correct distance because the edge finder has a diameter of 0.200 inches, so moving half of that diameter (0.100 inches) will align the spindle center with the workpiece edge.
  • 0.200 inches: This would move the spindle center to the opposite edge of the edge finder, not the center.
  • 0.020 inches: This is incorrect as it does not account for the full radius of the edge finder.

In summary, the correct answers are:

  1. The resolution of the hand dial is 0.001 inches.
  2. The distance to move the table is 0.100 inches.
