OCR: ACCELEROMETER ALTERNATING COILS CURRENT SPRING. Change of speed ARMATURE An alternating current produces a magnetic field around the coils. If an aircraft changes speed or direction, inertia causes the spring-mounted armature to lag behind relative to the coils. This disturbs the magnetic field, sending a signal to the microprocessor.
