A manufacturer specification sheet lists the transfer function of a pressure sensor as 45 ± 5%mV/kPa with a time constant of 4 ± 10% s. A highly accurate test system applies a step change of pressure from 20 kPa to 100 kPa.

a. What is the range of sensor voltage outputs initially and finally? 

b. What range of voltages would be expected to be measured 2 s after the step change is applied?
