Draw a causal loop diagram to describe the following:
As the sky diver falls she travels faster and faster until reaching a terminal velocity. Include diver’s speed, air resistance, net downward force, and downward acceleration in your diagram.
Gas pedal depression car’s acceleration
MPH above speed limit car’s acceleration
car’s acceleration car’s speed
Draw a causal loop diagram to describe the following:
As a car travels down the highway it maintains a speed near the goal of the speed limit. Include car’s speed above speed limit, gas pedal depression, and acceleration in your diagram.
Causal loops are a communication tool
