Solutions to your doubts are just one click away. Just select the appropriate category and ask questions. You can also reply to the answers you are already aware.
An accelerometer is an electronic sensor that measures the acceleration forces acting on an object, in order to determine the object’s position in space and monitor the object’s movement. Acceleration, which is a vector quantity, is the rate of change of an object’s velocity (velocity being the displacement of the object divided by the change in time).
There are two types of acceleration forces: static forces and dynamic forces. Static forces are forces that are constantly being applied to the object (such as friction or gravity). Dynamic forces are “moving” forces applied to the object at various rates (such as vibration, or the force exerted on a cue ball in a game of pool). This is why accelerometers are used in automobile collision safety systems, for example. When a car is acted on by a powerful dynamic force, the accelerometer (sensing a rapid deceleration) sends an electronic signal to an embedded computer, which in turn deploys the airbags.
