The two resistors in the dashed box below, R+Ar and R-Ar, represent the sensing elements of a pressure sensor. They form one branch of a Wheatstone Bridge. In the absence of pressure (Ar = 0), the variable resistance Rx is adjusted to balance the bridge (VA - VB = 0). a) Derive expressions for V₁ and VB as functions of the bridge resistances and Vs b) What should the value of Rx be to ensure a balanced bridge when Ar is zero? c) The output of the ideal Op Amp circuit can be written as: Vo=VAGA-VB GB. Under what condition will the Op Amp circuit behave as a true difference amplifier with gain GA = gain G₁? The maximum value that Ar can reach is Armax = 422.
