Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the term for maintaining room temperature

This heating system maintains room temperature at or near a particular value, known as the set point.

Step 2: Identify the term for the drop in temperature

You open the window, and a blast of icy air enters the room. The temperature drops to 17 degrees Celsius, which acts as a stimulus to the heating system.

Step 3: Identify the term for the thermostat's function

The thermostat is a sensor that detects the stimulus and triggers a response.
