Op-Amp, Inverting and Non-Inverting Amplifiers problem 7


A strain gauge S is connected into the circuit shown in the figure below.




The operational amplifier (op-amp) is ideal. The output potential of the circuit is given by the expression




  • State the name given to the ratio .


  • The strain gauge S has resistance when not under strain. Calculate the magnitude of such that, when the strain gauge S is not strained, the output is zero.


  • In a particular test, the resistance of S increases to . is unchanged. The ratio is 12. Calculate the magnitude of .
