On the basis of the equations of the Focus on Measurements box “Linear Variable Differential Transformer,” and of the results of Problem 18.3, derive the frequency response of the LVDT, and determine the range of frequencies for which the device will have maximum sensitivity for a given excitation. (Hint: Compute dvout/dvex, and set the derivative equal to zero to determine the maximum sensitivity.)
