What is the purpose of a potentiometer?

A potentiometer is a type of position sensor. They are used to measure displacement in any direction. Linear potentiometers linearly measure displacement and rotary potentiometers measure rotational displacement. Also known as a Potmeter or Pot, it consists of a resistive element called the track and a sliding contact called the wiper internally where end terminals are attached to the resistive element. They are used to accurately measure voltage and help achieve a variable voltage from a fixed-voltage source. Common Examples of Potentiometers are: Measuring Position on a gaming joystick Controlling audio equipment using volume controls


Explain the scope and visibility of variables in c plus plus function?

If you define a variable inside of your function, the variable can be referred and used only inside of that function. It means that you will not able to use the variable in another function (including main). Area of code where your variable can be used after declaration is usually called visibility of the variable.


Suppose an external variable is defined outside of function A and accessed within the function Does it matter whether the external variable is defined before or after the function. Explain?

No the two work together REALLY

What is a variable used for in Python?

A variable is used to store information. As an example say you are asking someone for their favorite food, and want to store the answer in a variable called favoriteFood: favoriteFood = input("What is your favorite food?") Now if you print the value of favoriteFood (using print(FavoriteFood)) you will see that it has been saved in that variable. You can store any type in a variable, such as number, a string, or even an object.

What is a dependant variable?

A dependent variable is the outcome or result in an experiment that is measured or observed. It is influenced by changes in the independent variable, which is controlled or manipulated in the experiment. The dependent variable is what researchers are trying to understand or explain through their study.
