Use a gear set, or use a multi-turn potentiometer. They also make 360 degree potentiometers for this purpose - they generally have four taps that you can feed out-of-phase reference signals to in order to measure the position. The Link GAT-1 trainer, an older aircraft simulator, used this technology.

How do you tell if a shotgun wound was accidental.?

Forensic analysis of a gunshot wound can not determine intent, only the physical details, such as angle and distance from muzzle. You'd have to ask the person who pulled the trigger.


What type of speed control system uses a wire -wound potentiometer?

A potentiometer is another name for a variable resister used for voltage dividing. Potentiometers have three tabs on them The two outer most tabs have the full resistance of the device across them. The center tab is connected to the wiper that slides across the surface of the resister. A voltage is applied to the two outside tabs on the potentiometer. A voltage of your choosing will appear across either the left tab to the center wiper tab or from the right tab and the center wiper tab. A potentiometer of this type is used to control the speed output of variable frequency drives. A 10K potentiometer has 10VDC applied across the two outside tabs If the drive sees the full 10 volts it allows the drive to go to full output and the motor will run at full speed. With the potentiometer's center tab wiper at half position a voltage of 5 VDC will appear to the drive. When the drive sees the 5 volts it tells the drive to go to half speed output and the motor will run at half speed. This potentiometer is linear so no matter where the wiper is positioned, the motor speed will follow the potentiometer settings from 1% right up to 100%


After surgery does cell growth increase or decrease as wound heal?

beacuse it increase as the cells are multiplying so that to form new tissues and thus new skin to replace the wound


Why are guitar strings wound?

Guitar strings are wound to increase their mass and density, which helps produce a richer and fuller sound when the strings are played.


Does cell growth increase as the wound heals?

Yes, cell growth is a key part of the wound healing process. As the body works to repair the damaged tissue, new cells are formed to close the wound. This cell growth helps to restore the integrity of the skin or tissue that was injured.


What would be most responsible for prolonging a wound healing in the older resident?

Damp dressing for a wound?

A wound should have a clean dry dressing unless specified by a doctor to have a damp dressing. The damp dressing may encourage bacterial growth and increase risk of infection.


Why can not apply methol to a bleeding wound?

It is a blood thinner and would prevent the blood from clotting, which would increase the bleeding.

Can whiskey effectively clean wounds?

No, whiskey is not an effective wound cleaner. It can actually slow down the healing process and increase the risk of infection. It is best to use proper wound cleaning solutions recommended by healthcare professionals.


How do you get 12V DC to 9V DC with a pot and if it can be done what value pot?

The answer is a very-qualified "yes." Assuming that you buffer the output (see below), any value potentiometer can be used to get 9V from 12V. Assuming a round, linear taper pot (see below), you will get 9V at the tap when you turn the knob approximately 1/4 of the way from maximum output. A potentiometer (or "pot") is a 3 terminal device consisting of two "fixed contacts" at the ends of a (typically) wire-wound resistor and one "wiper contact" or "tap" that can be moved along the resistor. If you apply a 12V source to the fixed contacts of a potentiometer, you will be able to adjust the tap to any voltage between 12V and 0V. In many applications, the tap serves as a reference value. This means that you don't load the tap directly but instead buffer it using an amplification stage to drive your load. If you apply the load directly to the tap, it will change the voltage value and generally make your design more complicated. In cases where the load is tied directly to the tap, the pot is often wired differently in a configuration called a rheostat. When you choose your potentiometer, there are a few parameters you want to pay attention to: 1. The value of the potentiometer (e.g. 1K ohms) is the value of the resistance between the fixed contacts when the tap is left open. This value is important because it usually determines the amount of current drawn from the source. If you're replacing a potentiometer that has burned out, make sure to match this value with the one you're removing. 2. The power rating of the potentiometer (e.g. 0.5W) is how much power the potentiometer can dissipate safely. Make sure that the power rating is high enough for your application or it will burn out. 3. The taper of the potentiometer (e.g. linear or logarithmic) describes how the position of the tap changes with travel. Audio applications typically use a logarithmic potentiometer because our ears distinguish sound intensity logarithmically (something that sounds "twice as loud" is probably causing several powers of ten times as much energy to strike your eardrum). If you get the wrong taper, adjusting the potentiometer will feel "wrong" and either the change will be too great or not noticeable for most of the travel.
