Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.6E
Interpretation Introduction
(a)
Interpretation:
The ways by which body temperature is regulated by the body using feedback control should be explained.
Concept introduction:
The feedback control system observed in two types such as:
- Positive control system: The output values and setpoints are added into this type of system.
- Negative control system: In this system, the output values and setpoints are subtracted.
The positive control system is less stable than a negative control system.
Interpretation Introduction
(b)
Interpretation:
