a. (1 points) What is the highest mass that you can measure with
this sensor?
b. (2 points) The sensor information is being read in by an Arduino
(10-bit ADC, 5V FSR). What value will the Arduino ADC return
when a 2 kg mass is placed on the load cell?
c. (1 point) During the course of the science museum exhibit, some
roughhousing occurs that damages one of the load cells.
Specifically, one of the strain gauges becomes detached from the
beam in the load cell structure, but it is still electrically
connected to the Wheatstone bridge circuit. Is this bridge
configuration now technically a half-bridge or quarter-bridge
circuit? Circle one below:
