Q&A

Some students at Zim Research College wish to count the number of cars
passing through a bus street at night and simultaneously monitor the
sound level in the street. They decide to use data
logging techniques for this study.
(a)Identify suitable sensors that the students could use.
-Weight sensor
-pressure sensor
-proximity sensor
-sound sensor
-light sensor [2]

(b)Describe the procedure the students would carry out

-connect e,g light sensor and sound sensor along the roadside
-sensors will be recording data each time a car passes on the roadside
-specify the logging period and the interval
-display the data on a list on the screen

-save the data for use on disk
