When Bethany steps on her digital scale, a mechanism in it measures the physical pressure pushing down on the scale and converts
it into an electrical signal that can be read by the scale. The converting of the physical pressure on the scale caused by Bethany’s weight into an electrical signal is similar to the process of _______.
A transducer is a device which deals with the conversion of a form of energy from one form to another, usually converting signals. There are mechanical and electrical transducers, the former dealing with converting physical quantities into mechanical quantities, while the latter deals with converting physical quantities into electrical quantities. The digital scale used by Bethany is an electrical transducer. Transduction is therefore the process of converting one form of energy to another.
