Accelerometer vs. Gyroscope - measuring torque
Thanks berkeman, Yes this is background for homework! statements, pros & cons - 1. Accelerometer give signal based on linear acceleration or tangential if at the edge of a spinning obj (like the drawing above) - So accelerometers react to linear/tangential forces, which also include Gravity...- HarryLime

Accelerometer vs. Gyroscope - measuring torque
Summary:: accelerometer Vs gyroscope - measuring torque Torque can be measured with an accelerometer (tangential-acceleration): t = F*r and F=m*a, so we get a from the accelerometer, giving: t = m*a*r Nm Torque can be measured with an gyroscope (angular-acceleration): t = F*r The...- HarryLime
