This document contains important questions for an instrumentation and control systems midterm exam. It is divided into two parts: Part A contains short answer questions defining key terms like measurement, measurand, and asking for examples of input signals, errors in instruments, and types of transducers. Part B contains longer questions explaining the theory and construction of various instruments like pressure gauges, temperature measuring devices, flow meters, and asking about transducer types and measurement systems.
