    Scaling a +/-5V Signal to 200mV for a Torque Sensor

    i am taking a +/-5 voltage signal is supposed coming from a torque sensor. this is supposed to be equal to 100 N*m. However, -5.04 volts is actually equal to 100 N*m and 4.85 volts is actually equal to 100 N*m. I need to scale this signal to a maximum input of 200 mV for display on a panel...

    Understanding TTL Impulse Outputs

    i am working with an encoder that says its output is impulse(ttl). I'm not quite sure what this means. is it just a digital signal? how does it work? any help you can give me would be great.

    Affordable Panel Meters for Test Stand w/ Torque, Position & Voltage

    I am building a test stand that will implement 7 different panel meters. These panels are for torque, angular position, and voltage. Could anyone recommend affordable panel meters that will work for this application. Any help would be great. Thanks

    Choosing an Electric Motor for Steering Wheel Resistance: Expert Advice

    sorry, i should have said this before, but the resistance needs to be able to vary from no resistance to around 7 N*m

    Choosing an Electric Motor for Steering Wheel Resistance: Expert Advice

    the purpose of the motor is to apply a small resistance (4-7 N*m) to the steering wheel shaft. The shaft itself will be turned by a steering wheel. this should allow the motor to run as a generator creating a voltage.

    Choosing an Electric Motor for Steering Wheel Resistance: Expert Advice

    I am trying to implement an electric motor as a generator at the end of a steering wheel shaft. The motor would be used to apply a resistance torque to the shaft. What type of motor would you recommend?

    Analog Signal Meters for Rotational Velocity & Angle Measurement

    basically i want a meter that will show a signal similar to the way an oscilloscope would, with time on the x-axis and the output on the other. I don't think it really needs to show the actual angle as the output on an angle sensor would be voltage and that would correspond to an angle, i think...

    Analog Signal Meters for Rotational Velocity & Angle Measurement

    Is there any kind of signal meter that can take an analog output of rotational velocity, angle etc. and show it in its full form. If there is meters like this could you recommend a few? Thanks

    Find q1 such that Force on Test Charge has no X-Component

    There are two point charges q1 located at (4,0,-3) and q2 at (2,0,1) if q2=4nC find q1 such that the force on a test charge at (5,0,6) has no x-component. I think I would know how to do this problem if I knew what a test charge was. Is it just one electron.

    Finding Work Done by a Force Field: A Math Problem

    i have a force field F = 2xy*(ux)+(x^2-z^2)(uy)-3xz^2(uz) where ux,uy,and uz are unit vectors in the direction indicated. I have to find the work done by the field on a particle that travels from A(0,0,0) to B(2,1,3) on a straight line. work is regarded as the integral from A to B of the dot...

    How do I express Z and R unit vectors in different coordinate systems?

    at point T(2,3,-4) in rectangular coordinate system, how would I express the Z unit vector in the spherical system and the R unit vector in the rectangular system? I know T in spherical coordinates is (5.385,-42 degrees,56.3 degrees) but i have no idea how i would express a unit vector in a...
