What you think the magnitude of the sensor output indicates.
The word “Transducer” is the collective term used for both Sensors which can be used to sense a wide range of different energy forms such as movement, electrical signals, radiant energy, thermal or magnetic energy etc, and Actuators which can be used to switch voltages or currents.
Input type transducers or sensors, produce a voltage or signal output response which is proportional to the change in the quantity that they are measuring (the stimulus).The type or amount of the output signal depends upon the type of sensor being used. But generally, all types of sensors can be classed as two kinds, either Passive Sensors or Active Sensors.

R Problem 4 (15 points): The output of an infrared distance sensor (with zero output impedance) varies from O to 5 V linearly as the distance of an object from the sensor changes from 0 to 100 cm. The output of the sensor is connected to the input of the circuit shown on the right (where the op amp has supply voltages +2 V and -2 V, and R = 1 ks). If you want this entire system to measure...

2- A force sensor has as its output a change in resistance. The sensor forms one leg (RI) of a basic Wheatstone bridge. The sensor resistance with no force load is 600 ohms and its static sensitivity is 0.6 ohms/Newton. Each arm of the bridge is initially 600 ohms. All resistors are 14 W. a- Determine the bridge output for an applied load of 300N with an input voltage of 12 volts. - Determine the current flow and power consumption...
Which of the following scan tool readings (engine ar idle) indicates a problem. MAF sensor 3.5g/air flow Oxygen sensor between 200-800 MAP sensor between 0.88 and 1.62 v
You have a sensor that has a maximum output of 25 Volt, and you want to feed this signal intoa data acquisition (DAQ) board with a maximum input in the range 0, +101 Volt. Design a circuit that matches the sensor to your DAQ board with the following design criteria: a) You need to attenuate the input signal by a factor of 2.5 b) The sensor cannot provide any current; therefore you need to make sure not to cause a...
In the following three cases predict whether the magnitude of the force sensor measurement will be greater than, less than, or equal to the gravitational force on the 1kg mass (~10N). Explain your reasoning in each case. Case A Case B Force Sensor Force Sensor Case C Force Sensor
9. Consider a light sensor that is in a "Smart Car". The light sensor is used for turning the headlights on when light sensor does not detect any light. When there is no light on the sensor, the output of the LDR is 15 and when it detects a light, the output is 200. Consider the LDR output is read into à variable "sensorValue". Write a conditional statement that the lights turn on when it is dark. You can use...
