MECHANICAL & ELECTRO-MECHANICAL MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLES

Mechanical and electro-mechanical devices play an important role in our
everyday life. Lesson one of this subcourse includes information which will help
you understand molecular activity changes and the relationship of these changes to heat.

It also explains the operating principles for related heat sensing and
measuring instruments. The second lesson explains the physical principles of
pressure measurements and also includes information on pressure devices which you must use and calibrate. Lesson three contains information on rotary and torque measurements. It also includes information which will help you understand the operating principle of the proving rug. Lesson four discusses the principle which you must apply to perform vibration measurements and tells you when you must calibrate vibration equipment. Lesson five teaches operation of the analytical balance and principles of mass measurement.
