I am currently doing my A levels at school and my next peace of coursework is on sensors and mesuring their sensitivity. it has to be something that can be done with fairly basic equipment (so just resistors, wires, bulbs, capacitors) normal high school stuff and with a fairly easy theory to learn. I am not at Uni by the way so hold back on the calculus if you can.
any ideas would really help. the best one i have have come up with is the Wheatstone Bridge mesuring resistance.
any suggestions?

cheers for you help

I am intending to but i just thought a website full of brilliant physicists might have a diffrent pespective on things but if you think it is a good idea I am happy to go ahead with it.
