Question: 3 . 1 2 . A cantilever beam with four strain gages is used as a load transducer, as shown in Fig. P 3 .

3.12. A cantilever beam with four strain gages is used as a load transducer, as shown in Fig. P3.12. A full Wheatstone bridge is to be used. Show the positions of four gages in the
bridge so that maximum sensitivity is obtained and the output is equal to (VGfdh2EI)P; comment on the dimension d in relation to sensitivity. Note that V and Gf are the bridge excitation voltage and gage factor, respectively.
