Question

answer all and dont give only first

b) As an engineer in a factory, you are supposed to construct a strain guage.
List ten (10) desirable factors that your selection of grid materials will be based on.
c) Show that for a balanced Wheatstone bridge circuit
R1 R4
R2 R3
d) Also the output voltage of an unloaded symmetrical resistance bridge is given by the
equation:
V AR
Va =-x
R
Show that, V =
V
AL
X K
e) A single 100V resistance strain guage having a guage factor of 2 is mounted on a
steel bar and is connected into a circuit. When the steel bar is subjected to a tensile
force the output voltage of unloaded bridge is 5mV. If the recommended operating
current of the guage is 15mA, determine the value of the mechanical strain.
