Suppose a ball-screw mechanism that enables a resolver to make linear measurements causes its rotor to make one revolution for every one-half inch it moves. If the resolver produces 4,000 feedback units per revolution, how far has its horizontal element moved if the count is 16,800?
What will be an ideal response?
0.5 inch = 4000 f.u.
Therefore, .00125 inch = 1 f.u.
.000125 ´ 16,800 = 2.1 inch

Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)
1. Most PLCs now have the ability to manipulate data that is stored in memory. 2. When the rung that holds the MOV instruction is false, the instruction moves data from the source address into the destination address on each processor scan. 3. In the Allen-Bradley MOV instruction, constants such as 250, 400, 5.5, etc., can be entered into the source location of the MOV instruction rather than a memory address containing the value to be moved. 4. “Data compare instructions” compare the data stored in two or more words and make decisions based on the program instructions. 5. The limit test instruction is true until it detects that the test value is within certain limits.
