Summary Introduction
To draw:
The model of the control circuit(s) required for driving an automobile at a fairly constant speed over a hilly road. Label each figure that represents a sensor, stimulus, or response.
Concept introduction:
An automobile is being driven by a driver at a fairly constant speed over a hilly road. There will be stimulus, sensor and a response. The stimulus is that a car is moving fast or slow. The sensor is that the electronic sensors detect the pace, and automatically the speed of the vehicle increases or decreases. The response is the increase in the speed by using an accelerator or the decrease of the speed by using a brake.
