Answer must be coorect -- when using three-wire connections to a strain gage to reduce the effects of leadwire resistance changes with temperature, a phenomenon called leadwire desensitization can occur. If the magnitude of the leadwire resistance exceeds 0.1% of the nominal gage resistance, significant error can result. Assuming a 18-gauge (AWG) platinum leadwire (resistivity 10.6×10-8 S2m) and a standard 120 22 gage, how long can the (individual) leads (in inches) be before there is leadwire desensitization?
(a) An infrared gas analyser has a span of 01% of the component being measured. It operates at atmospheric pressure and was calibrated when the barometric pressure was 0.995 bar. The barometric pressure changes to 1.015 bar. What will the instrument read when the actual percentage of the component is (i) 0.5% (ii) 0.8%?

It is essential in engineering to consider measurement uncertainty when analysing data. Describe the types of uncertainties that can occur when taking measurements, how to assess them and what affect this can have on thepresentation of data. Include diagrams
1.The thickness of a gage block is measured five times using an instrument that has a resolution of 0.001 cm. The following measurements are obtained (in cm): 1.100, 1.110, 1.090, 1.095, and 1.105. The true gauge block thickness is known to be 1.050 cm. Use this information to answer the following questions: a. What errors or sources of measurement error can be identified in the example? (Hint: there are three). Identify each one as a random or systematic uncertainty. b. Estimate the magnitudes of each of these uncertainties. Wherever possible, estimate random uncertainties at a 95% probability/confidence level. c. Based on the uncertainties determined in part b, estimate the overall uncertainty of a measurement obtained by this instrument.

The nuchal ligament in a horse supports the weight of the horse’s head. This ligament is much more elastic than a typical ligament, stretching from 15% to 45% longer than its resting length as a horse’s head moves up and down while it runs. This stretch of the ligament stores energy, making locomotion more efficient. Measurements on a segment of ligament show a linear stress-versusstrain relationship until the stress approaches 0.80. Smoothed data for the stretch are shown. The volume of the ligament stays the same as it stretches, so the cross-section area decreases as the length increases. Given this, how would a force F versus change in length ΔL curve appear?
A boron implant at 30 keV is done through a gate oxide that is 15nm thick, into a silicon substrate. LSS tables show a boron implant range in oxide at this energy of 100 nm and a standard deviation of 25 nm. Calculate the fraction of boron implant that is absorbed in the oxide.
