B) variable
C) photovoltaic
D) resistive

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The capacitance discharge sensor uses a variable capacitor instead of a silicon diaphragm to measure pressure changes. The variable capacitor changes its capacitance based on the distance between the capacitor plates, which is determined by the pressure applied to the plates.
