Show hintHide hint
Think about how we ensure sensors give correct readings.
Question 2.
Explain stability in sensors.
Show hintHide hint
Consider whether a sensor's output changes significantly over time.
3Question 3.
What is Calibration in sensor testing?
- Adjusting the sensor using known standards
- Replacing the sensor
- Checking the connections
Show hintHide hint
Think of how you would set a clock to match an exact time.
4Question 4.

Consider what happens to a reliable sensor.
Question 5.
After installing a temperature sensor, its readings appear to drift significantly over time. Detail the steps you would take to troubleshoot this issue.
Show hintHide hint
Start with the basics of setup and connections.
Question 6.
You have two light sensors. One gives readings that are consistently higher than the other. How would you confirm the accuracy of the sensors?
Show hintHide hint
Think about testing them simultaneously under controlled conditions.
