Thinking in Stability - Level 5 - Feedback

The video tutorial explains feedback systems, focusing on how they maintain stability in changing systems. It uses examples like a waxing iron and automobile cruise control to illustrate negative feedback loops. The tutorial highlights the importance of feedback in achieving stable systems and encourages viewers to apply these concepts to other systems like toilets and thermoregulation.

What is the first step in controlling a system to keep it stable over time?

Explain how feedback loops can be used to maintain stability in a system.

What happens when the temperature of the iron exceeds the set point?

Describe the role of a thermostat in a feedback loop.

How does a negative feedback loop differ from a positive feedback loop?

In the context of cruise control, what inputs and outputs are involved in maintaining speed?

How can feedback loops be applied in thermal regulation within the human body?
