Question 1.
What does the P in PID stand for?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how it reacts to the error.
Question 2.
What effect does the Integral component have?
Show hintHide hint
Consider what happens over time.
3Question 3.
What does the Integral component of a PID controller do?
- It reacts immediately to error
- It eliminates steady-state error
- It predicts future errors
Show hintHide hint
Think about how it helps over time.
4Question 4.
True or False: The Derivative component of a PID controller only works with current errors.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider whether it looks back or ahead.
Question 5.

Show hintHide hint
Think about responsiveness versus stability.
Question 6.
