Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
An aneroid manometer consists of a vacuum chamber with a flexible cover or diaphragm that flexes when pressure is applied to it. Electromechanical transducers use variable capacitance; strain gauge pressure transducers use Wheatstone bridge circuits; and variable inductance trans-ducers use the magnetic flux between two coils to measure pressure.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Mouth pressure and box pressure changes are measured during tidal breathing and panting ma-neuvers.
