An accelerometer is a device that uses the extension of a spring to measure acceleration in terms of earth's gravitational acceleration (g). what is the approximate acceleration if this accelerometer spring is extended just 0.43 centimeters?

The following questions are about how to determine the function f: (l,h) → { 2b – 1}, for an accelerometer, which given a proper acceleration x yields a digital number f(x). we will assume that x has units of "g's," where lg is the acceleration of gravity, approximately g = 9.8meters/seconda. (a) let the bias b e {0, 2b – 1} be the output of the adc when the ac- celerometer measures no proper acceleration. how can you measure b? (b) let a e { 2b - 1} be the difference in output of the adc when the ac- celerometer measures og and lg of acceleration. this is the adc conversion of the sensitivity of the accelerometer. how can you measure a? (c) suppose you have measurements of a and b from parts (3b) and (3a). give an affine function model for the accelerometer, assuming the proper acceleration is x in units of g's. discuss how accurate this model is. (d) given a measurement f(x) (under the affine model), find x, the proper accel- eration in g's. (e) the process of determining a and b by measurement is called calibration of the sensor. discuss why it might be useful to individually calibrate each particular accelerometer, rather than assume fixed calibration parameters a and b for a collection of accelerometers. (f) suppose you have an ideal 8-bit digital accelerometer that produces the value f(x) = 128 when the proper acceleration is og, value f(x) = 1 when the proper acceleration is 3g to the right, and value f(x) = 255 when the proper acceleration is 3g to the left. find the sensitivity a and bias b. what is the dynamic range (in decibels) of this accelerometer? assume the accelerometer never yields f(x) = 0.
