You are investigating two sensors to use in an experiment. Sensor A has area 600 ± 0.3 mm2 and the gap thickness is 0.3 ± 0.01 mm. Sensor B has area 400 ± 0.25 mm2 and the gap thickness is 0.2 ± 0.02 mm. Estimate the relative (hint: this is a %) and absolute uncertainties (hint: this has units of capacitance) in capacitance for both sensors. Your experiment requires that the capacitance is measured accurately within 5%. Which would you select for your experiment? Justify your response.

The purpose of this project is to use two light sensors (photoresistors) to measure light intensity in two opposite positions (0 & 180°) and indicate the position with a servomotor. The materials that will be used are: two light sensors, one Arduino micro-controller, two LEDs, and one servo motor. Each LED will indicate when a photoresistor is illuminated (positioned on opposite sides of the servomotor), while the servomotor moves to the illuminated side. In addition, when the intensity of the...

Write a VHDL code to use two ultrasonic sensors as detectors, placed one at entrance and other at exit of a parking space. When the ultrasonic detects a car, use a counter to count the cars entering and decrement when a car exits. There is an RGB led place at each gate (entry &exit) which is used to indicate opening and closing of gates. Entry gate LED turns green when car detected and space available. LED stays red when no...

You are investigating two genes for interaction. You have two lines of the organism that are homozygous at these two loci. Line A has the genotype AAbb and line B has the genotype aaBB. Both lines have an identical phenotype. You cross these lines and collect offspring from the F1 generation which are all double heterozygotes and wild type in appearance. Then you cross these to produce an F2 generation. You have 40 offspring in your F2 generation. The offspring...

In Young’s experiment, monochromatic light of wavelength 600 nm shines on two slits separated by 0.3 mm, producing an interference pattern on a screen that is 2.0 m away. You put a thin sheet of glass (n = 1.5) at the top slit and you observe a dark fringe the central location of the screen. Furthermore, the fourth bright spot on both sides of the central location is missing. (a) Sketch the resulting interference pattern. Precisely state the spacing between...

A coil has N turns enclosing an area of A . In a physics laboratory experiment, the coil is rotated during the time interval Δt from a position in which the plane of each turn is perpendicular to Earth's magnetic field to one in which the plane of each turn is parallel to the field. The magnitude of Earth's magnetic field at the lab location is B . Part A What is the magnitude Φinitial of the magnetic flux through...

An industrial area has several companies that use similar chemicals. Groundwater in this area has been found to be contaminated, and several companies are disputing who is responsible. (The responsible party must pay for remediation.) Two of the chemicals used by several companies are TCE and dioxane, but the companies often use different ratios of these chemicals. One company uses 3.6 times more TCE than dioxane, and the standard deviation of the TCE:dioxane ratio in its supply drums was 0.3....
