Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.4QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The transducer in smoke detector should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Transducers play a vital role in analysis process. The real physical world data can be converted into a measurable form with the help of these devices. Basically, transducer is a device which convert any form of signal into electrical signals or vice versa. They can either be used at input or output of a system. There are many factors which are considered while selecting a type of transducer to be used for a task. They are sensitivity, range, accuracy, precision, linearity, size and cost.

- You work in a research organization that is looking for markers of various diseases that can be used as a diagnostic for the disease. It has been reported in the past that high levels of Cu are found in the sweat of people with cystic fibrosis. One of the research projects is focused on looking for high levels of Cu in samples that can be obtained non-invasively such as saliva, sweat, hair, nails, etc. The lab will analyze large samples for Cu.
