a) An accelerometer is an electromechanical device that measures acceleration forces including static and dynamic. The most common type of accelerometer is a piezoelectric accelerometer. Table 1 shows the performance sheet of a few models of accelerometer available in the market. i) Discuss the basic mechanism of an accelerometer. [7 Marks] [CO1, PO1, C4] ii) As an engineer, you need to find an accelerometer for a vibration analysis of a centrifugal pump which operates with maximum 100 Hz. Assess which one is the recommended accelerometer based on Table 1 and justify your answer. 15 Marks] [CO1, P01, C5] iii) A quartz crystal having a thickness of 1.5 mm is subjected to a pressure of 55 psi. Find the output voltage if the voltage sensitivity is 0.055 V-m/N.

b) A linear variable displacement transducer (LVDT) senses displacement and indicates a voltage output, which is linear to the input. Figure 1 shows an LVDT setup used for static calibration. It uses a micrometre to apply the known displacement and a voltmeter for the output. i) Suggest the independent, dependent and extraneous variables in this calibration.
