CLASS ASSIGNMENT

1. A rotary potentiometer with a resistance of 5 k and a measuring range of 325° uses a 10 V


supply. The potentiometer output was read by a measuring device with a resistance of 100 k .
Determine the angle measured by the potentiometer if the measuring device output is 6 V.
What would the measured angle be if the measuring device resistance is 1 M instead?
