Inverse Sensitivity or Scale Factor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Inverse Sensitivity or Scale Factor = 1/Sensitivity
SF = 1/S
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Inverse Sensitivity or Scale Factor - Inverse Sensitivity or Scale Factor determines the probability distribution of model inputs which produces a known distribution of outputs.
Sensitivity - (Measured in Watt) - Sensitivity of an instrument is the ratio of the change in output (or response) of the instrument to the change in input or measured variable.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Sensitivity: 3.75 Volt Ampere --> 3.75 Watt (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

SF = 1/S --> 1/3.75

Evaluating ... ...

SF = 0.266666666666667

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.266666666666667 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.266666666666667 ≈ 0.266667 <-- Inverse Sensitivity or Scale Factor
