Hi
I am measuring the G force from a jack hammer using an accelerometer . This gives a voltage output proportional to the force. The Jack hammer runs at 50hz . Does this mean to collect all the info I need a sample rate of 10ms. ie 2x 50hz.
I've had a look at some data loggers but ones that go anywere near the 10ms sample rate are quite expensive. I just want to make sure I can't get away with a slower sample rate data logger
