An ammeter requires a change of 3 A in its coil to produce a change in deflection of the pointer by 12 mm. Its sensitivity is
4 mm/A
Summarizing the Calculation Quantity Value Unit Change in Current (\Delta I) 3 A Change in Deflection (\Delta \theta) 12 mm Sensitivity (S = (\Delta \theta)/(\Delta I)) (12)/(3) = 4 mm/A Therefore, the sensitivity of the ammeter is 4 mm/A.
If meter A requires 100 mA to give full-scale deflection, meter B requires 50 mA to give scale deflection and meter C requires 80 mA to give full-scale deflection, then the
There are 2 systems:
a. An automatic washing machine
b. An automatic intensity adjustable light bulb
Which of these systems will be more sensitive to the variation in system's gain?
Study the given table for resistance values of a platinum thermometer measured at a range of temperatures. Calculate the sensitivity of the measurement of the instrument.
| Resistance (Ω) | Temperature (°C) |
| 200 | 100 |
| 205 | 150 |
| 210 | 200 |
| 215 | 250 |
Calculate the sensitivity of a 0-1 mA meter.
