Question

Into which energy signal does the position sensor convert the measured position of servomotor in servomechanisms?

(a) Mechanical

(b) Electrical

(c) Thermal

(d) Light

I had been asked this question in quiz.

Origin of the question is The Design Problem topic in division Design of Control Systems

Answer 1

The correct choice is (a) Mechanical

To explain I would say: In mechanical system the sensors are used in which the mechanical motion is converted into electrical energy and generally in mechanical system position sensor convert the measured position of servomotor in servomechanism.
