Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a disadvantage of open-loop systems?
  • Step 1: Understand what an open-loop system is. It is a type of control system that does not use feedback to determine if the output is correct.
  • Step 2: Recognize that open-loop systems operate on a set input and produce an output without checking if the output is affected by any disturbances.
  • Step 3: Identify that a disturbance is any unexpected change that can affect the output of the system.
  • Step 4: Realize that because open-loop systems do not monitor their output, they cannot adjust or correct themselves if something goes wrong.
  • Step 5: Compare this to closed-loop systems, which can adjust their output based on feedback, making them more robust.
