A Wheatstone bridge is comprised of 4 resistors, 120 Ohm nominal resistance each. Exactly one of these resistors (R3) is a strain gauge, gauge factor is 2.0. The supply voltage is 3 V. The bridge is in balance when the strain gauge is unloaded. Under loading, the strain gauge is subject to strain (epsilon=0.0025).

This circuit is a Wheatstone Bridge. It is used for numerous scientific and engineering applications. Here, R1 = 20 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ, R3 = 5 kΩ, and R4 = 10 kΩ. ε = 5 V. a) Determine the Thevenin equivalent resistance RTH between points A and B. (Hint: when we remove the power supply and short the circuit, the wire connecting the “top” and “bottom” of the bridge can then be drawn to go right down the center...
A 120 Ω strain gauge with a gauge factor of 2 is mounted on a beam and connected in a Wheatstone bridge as shown in Figure Q1a. The bridge is powered by a 12 V DC supply in series with a 510 Ω resistance. The beam is subject to a tensile force, which produces an axial strain of 940 microstrain measured by the strain gauge .a) Under no strain, calculate the current in the strain gauge and the power dissipated by the...
3. Two different types of strain gauges with a nominal resistance of 120 2 are both used to measure an axial strain in Figure 3. They are connected to a Wheatstone bridge (the lead wire effect is negligible) at R1 and R3 R3 is a nickel wire strain gauge with a gauge factor -12.1 and R1 is a nicrome wire strain gauge with a gauge factor 2.1.
