This document contains a continuous assessment test for a Sensors and Actuators class being taken during the second semester of 2020. The assessment contains 7 questions related to sensors, including inductive proximity and capacitive proximity sensors, thermocouples, NTCs and PTCs, strain gauges, flow sensors, encoders, and optical encoders. Students are to answer each question within the specified number of marks.
