Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are small devices that combine mechanical and electrical components. They are made using electronic manufacturing technology, which allows for miniaturization and low-cost production. MEMS can be found in everyday items like cars, smartphones, and medical equipment. They range in size from 1 to 100 micrometers. There is also a new generation of even smaller components called NEMS, which are measured in nanometers. MEMS devices can be simple or complex, and they have two main functions: sensors and actuators. Sensors can detect things like temperature, pressure, and radiation, while actuators control the flow of gas and liquid. MEMS are used in a wide range of products, from video games to surgical equipment. They are also becoming more common in drones, robots, and personalized applications. In the future, they will play a big role in the Internet of Things (IoT).

Question: What are the two main functions of MEMS devices? A) Sensors and actuators B) Levers and springs C) Resistors and capacitors D) Nanometers and micrometers

MEMS are tiny devices that have mechanical and electrical parts. They are made using special technology that makes them small and cheap to produce. You can find MEMS in things like cars, phones, and medical equipment. They can be as small as 1 micrometer or as big as 100 micrometers. There are even smaller devices called NEMS that are measured in nanometers. MEMS can do two main things: they can sense things like temperature and pressure, and they can control the flow of gas and liquid. They are used in lots of different products, from games to medical tools. They are also being used in drones, robots, and personalized things. In the future, they will be a big part of the Internet of Things.

Question: What are the two main things that MEMS can do? A) Sense things and control flow B) Be small and cheap C) Be in cars and phones D) Be part of the Internet of Things
