An automatic control system containing a negative feedback loop is referred to as
A)cybernetic
B)go / no-go
C)postcontrol
D)critical ratio

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A cybernetic system involves the use of feedback loops to control and regulate a process. Negative feedback loops work to keep a system within a stable range by detecting any deviations from a desired set point and adjusting the system in a way that counteracts the deviation. This type of system is commonly used in engineering and control applications. Option B, go/no-go refers to a discrete control system where a particular action is either taken or not taken depending on a specific condition. Option C, postcontrol is not a commonly used term in control engineering, and option D, critical ratio, is a statistical measure used in business and economics.
