5. Static response of MEMS                                       339
         Answer:
             B = 918.52 T

          Problem 5.8
             The microdevice in Fig.  5.71 is used as an angular electrostatic actuator
          (as in Fig. 5.17) in an application where a rotation angle of   needs to
          be achieved.  Find the necessary voltage knowing that:
                                                     The torsion microhinges are
          defined  by:                           and G =  80 GPa.

          Answer:
              U= 17.34V

          Problem 5.9
              The four-beam microaccelerometer in  Fig.  5.72 is expected to  sense an
          acceleration               Find the mass that will produce a displacement
          of the central  mass          when the four identical flexure microhinges
          are defined by:                      E = 165 GPa.
