Question

Which of the formulae give us the acceleration in the MPU 6050 along the X axis?

(a) Acceleration along the X axis = (Accelerometer X axis raw data/16384) g

(b) Acceleration along the X axis = (Accelerometer X axis raw data/1634) g

(c) Acceleration along the X axis = (Accelerometer X axis raw data/1384) g

(d) Acceleration along the X axis = (Accelerometer X axis raw data/1622) g

This question was posed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.

The query is from MPU6050 Sensor Module in section Interfacing of Sensors, Actuators, and Other Modules of Arduino

Answer 1

The correct answer is (a) Acceleration along the X axis = (Accelerometer X axis raw data/16384) g

Easiest explanation: (Accelerometer X axis raw data/16384) gives the correct value of the acceleration of the MPU 6050 sensor. Here all the three values read from the 3 data pins of the Accelerometer module in the MPU 6050 are to be replaced in the equation one by one in order to get the 3D Model.
