3.1.6 Open and Closed Loop System

1. Build a support system
2. Add a gear box and a motor
5. It is a closed system
6.Where do you think the gear box would have come to rest had you set the program to cycle 120 times?----- It would either go to were the system was set to or the same place it had started
7.What problems and indecencies might this process cause if used in an assembly mechanism designed to run 24 hours a day 7 days a week?--- It could either wear out the or overrun the motor and cause it to malfunction.
9. Closed loop system
10.How prices would this device be if it were designed to cycle 500 times?-- It would be very expensive cause it would need a very detailed device.
This is the loop that went multiple times.

Conclusion
1. Describe an open loop system that has not already been given as an example.---An open loop system would be the cashier system at the grocery store checkout.
2.Describe a closed loop system that ha not already been given as a example.-- That would be like a elevator (like the ones we are making in class.)
