Control-System MCQ

This document contains a summary of key concepts in control systems. It defines open-loop and closed-loop control systems, and explains their basic characteristics in 3 sentences or less. Open-loop systems have output that is independent of control input, while closed-loop systems have output dependent on control input. Closed-loop systems are also known as feedback systems and tend to oscillate with positive feedback gain, whereas open-loop systems are generally free from issues caused by non-linearities. The document provides multiple choice questions to test understanding of these fundamental control system concepts.
