A historic bridge shows a deterioration in its structure. It will be restricted for vehicles weighing less than 1600 kg; otherwise it will be prevented access through a “feather” type barrier. To monitor the weight of the car are used 4 independent sensors placed on a platform just below the tires of the vehicle. Each sensor emits 1mV for every Kg. The weight of the car is the sum of the four sensors. Design a circuit that displays the weight of the car on a digital multimeter.
