What is antonym for sensors?
A sensor is a mechanical device sensitive to light, temperature, radiation levels or the like, that transmits a signal to a control instrument. As such, the word has no antonym.
Which type of energy is it when we feel heat from the sun?
Radiant energy (light) - the heat you feel is "infra red" radiation. Your eyes can not see this wavelength of light but there are sensors (thermal sensors) in your skin that can feel it.
What are 2 examples of heat or temperature sensors?
-- bimetallic strip -- thermocouple junction
Does infrared pick up heat?
Yes, infrared radiation can detect heat. Infrared sensors are designed to detect and measure the infrared radiation emitted by objects, including heat emitted by living organisms or warm objects.
What is radiation used for?
radiation is used for many things such as medicines, sterilizing foods, generalisationin electricity and heat, many industrial uses and many many more=====(such as seeing things, using the radio, watching TV, operating GPS, using acellphone, taking an X-ray of your teeth, getting a CT or MRI when you're hurt,toasting bread, getting a nice tan, taking a photo, looking at the moon, etc.)I'm going to assume that you mean ionizing radiation. Off the top of my head, major non-research uses include:- Diagnostics (e.g. medical imaging, materials inspection, etc.)- Sterilization (e.g. irradiated foods, irradiated seeds, etc.)- Sensors (e.g. smoke detectors, thickness gauges, etc.)electromagnetic radiation allows me to listen to the radio; heat radiation makes me warm at the beach; sound radiation carries your speech to me; ionizing radiation allows the sterilization of hospital supplies.
What sensors primarily operate in the EM spectrum just below the range of visible light?
Sensors that primarily operate in the electromagnetic spectrum just below the range of visible light include infrared (IR) sensors. These sensors detect and measure infrared radiation, which has longer wavelengths than visible light. They are commonly used in applications such as night vision devices, remote temperature sensing, and proximity detection.
Is there a picture of the protons and neutrons of beryllium?
No we are not able to see proton neutron or electron by visible electromagnetic radiation. So no one have picture of it, but these can be detected by various sensors.
What is antonym for sensors?
A sensor is a mechanical device sensitive to light, temperature, radiation levels or the like, that transmits a signal to a control instrument. As such, the word has no antonym.
Why do elephants have pain and temperature sensors?
Elephants have pain and temperature sensors because, they have big tusks.
Where are temperature sensors on 1.4 corsa van?
Temperature sensors are usually locate in the water-pump housing.
Does a fire alarm have a sensor?
Fire alarms have various sensors. Everything from gauges that determine if water is flowing through pipes, to detectors that contain trace amounts of radiation that ionize causing alarms. They can have heat sensors with varied temperature settings, to valve sensors that ensure that water or suppression systems are not isolated.
What are the differant types of smart sensors?
Smart sensors include environmental sensors (such as temperature and humidity sensors), motion sensors, light sensors, proximity sensors, and biometric sensors (such as fingerprint or facial recognition sensors). Each type of sensor is designed to detect specific physical characteristics or conditions and provide data for various applications.
Are all the sensors on a 1999 ford contour the same?
All of what sensors? There are dozens of different sensors in cars: O2 sensors, oil pressure/temperature, coolant temperature, fuel pressure, and so forth. All are different, and each car typically uses sensors that are different from sensors in other cars.
Which parking sensor technologies are currently used by car producers?
Parking sensors are used to alert drivers of unseen obstacles during parking maneuvers. The parking sensors that are currently used by car producers are electromagnetic sensors and ultrasonic sensors.
How can you measure the temperature inside a nuclear reactor?
Temperature sensors are installed in nuclear reactors as part of the design. An array of thermocouple-based sensors is not uncommon.
Where are the coolant temperature sensors on a Cummins C 6 8.3 year 1995?
Most all Cummins temperature sensors are located at the thremostat housing
What sensors are in an automatic washing machine?
the sensors are usually temperature, speed of drum and water level
