A semiconductor strain gauge of factor 120 and resistance 350 \( \Omega \) is strained by 0.0001. The resistance change is

  • A.0.42 \( \Omega \)
  • B.4.2 \( \Omega \)
  • C.0.07 \( \Omega \)
  • D.42 \( \Omega \)

Answer: B

The product is \( 350 \times 120 \times 0.0001 = 4.2\ \Omega \), against 0.07 ohm for a metallic gauge of factor two on the same strain. The sixty-fold advantage is real but comes with poor linearity and heavy temperature dependence.
