In a magnetic circuit, the magnetomotive force (m.m.f.) which drives a ux through a magnetic circuit is:
m.m.f.
= ux reluctance = .
The reluctance limits the ux through the circuit, just as resistance limits current ow through an electric circuit.

where l is the total length of the ux path, is the relative permeability of the circuit material, 0 = 4 107 H/m is the permeability of free space, A is the cross-sectional area of the ux path.

Summary
Capacitive sensing elements. Inductive sensing elements. Reactive Deection bridges. Electromagnetic sensing elements. Thermoelectric sensing elements. Elastic sensing elements. Piezoelectric sensing elements. There are more details and some other examples of sensing elements in the book. Read this on your own. The elements presented at the lecture are only examples. Make sure you get the big picture.
Next lecture
The remainder of chapter 9. Have covered only deection bridges so far. Ideal ampliers are covered in other courses. Read up on this, and we can focus on limitations and errors.
