Question
(a) A resistance strain gauge with a gauge factor of. 4 is cemented to a steel member,
which is subjected to a strain of 10-3. If the unstrained resistance value of the gauge is
1302, calculate the resistance value after strain.
(b) The system shown in Figure Q4 (b) is a J-type thermocouple, useded measure the
temperature.
(i)
Discuss the need to have a voltmeter in the measurement.
(ii)
Draw the system to describe the needed reference junction to the
thermocouple. Name the material of all parts added.
(iii)
Explain the need for the added reference junction for the thermocouple.
