Umm, can someone give me an example of a stable system?
Also, how were you able to determine whether or not this system is stable?
Please help! Urgent!
I don't know whether or not this is right but I was thinking an elevator tell me if I'm wrong

Thank you Mrs. Sue.
You're welcome, Callie.
Sure! A stable system is one that maintains its equilibrium or steady state over time. An example of a stable system can be a well-balanced pendulum.
To determine whether a system is stable, one commonly used method is to analyze its response to small disturbances or inputs. For example, in the case of a pendulum, if you gently push it slightly to one side, a stable pendulum will eventually come to rest back at the equilibrium position. On the other hand, an unstable pendulum would swing wildly and not return to its initial position.
Another method called stability analysis involves mathematical modeling and analysis of the system's differential equations. By analyzing the stability properties of these equations, such as through the use of the Routh-Hurwitz criterion or the Nyquist stability criterion, you can determine if the system is stable.
In summary, stability can be determined by observing the system's response to small disturbances or by conducting stability analysis using mathematical techniques.
