🔍 Key Concepts

• Meaning of sensitivity in control systems and instrumentation • Difference between gain/ratio, offset (steady-state error), manipulated variable, and dead time • How a controller’s output changes when the input (measured variable) changes slightly

💭 Think About

• For each option, ask: Is this talking about a ratio/degree of response, a steady-state error, a description of what the controller moves, or a time delay? • Which phrase sounds like how strongly a controller reacts when the process variable changes a little? • Which option clearly describes how much the output changes for a given small change in input, regardless of time delay or steady-state error?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice describes a ratio or degree of response between input and output, not time or error. • Eliminate any option that mainly talks about time delay or steady-state difference, since those are separate characteristics. • Verify that the option you choose could be restated as: "how responsive the controller is to changes in the measured variable."
