A strain gauge of 120 \( \Omega \) and gauge factor 2 undergoes a strain of 0.001. The change of resistance is

  • A.2.4 \( \Omega \)
  • B.0.0024 \( \Omega \)
  • C.0.24 \( \Omega \)
  • D.0.12 \( \Omega \)

Answer: C

From \( \Delta R = R \times G \times \epsilon \) the change is \( 120 \times 2 \times 0.001 = 0.24\ \Omega \). A fifth of one per cent on a hundred and twenty ohms is why a bridge and an amplifier are needed to see it at all.
