b) A deflection type spring balance for measuring mass is calibrated in an environment at a temperature of 20C. When used at 40C there will be some error in the measured values according to the following table: Input [kg] 0 5 deflection at 20C [mm] 0 2.5 deflection at 40C [mm] 0.3 3.05 i. Determine the zero drift (the no-load deflection) ii Determine the sensitivity drift 10 15 20 25 5 7.5 10 12.5 5.8 8.55 11.3 14.05
