7 d2 y dy + 4 + 8y = 8x 2 dt dt
Solution: Let x be the input and y be the output. d2 y dy + 2 + 4y = 4x 2 dt dt Taking Laplace transfrom s2 Y (s) + 2sY (s) + 4Y (s) = 4X(s) The transfer function of the system is given by Y (s) 4 = 2 X(s) s + 2s + 4 Comparing with the standard form
2 Y (s) n = 2 2 2 X(s) s + 2n s + n
Therefore, n = 2. 2n = 2 n = 1 1 1 = = 0.5 = n 2 2. The time constant for the dierential equation in the above problem is A. 0.5 B. 1.5 C. 0.2 D. 1.0
Solution: Time constant T =
=1
3. The open-loop transfer function of a system is H(s)G(s) = The system is of type A. N=0 B. N=1 C. N=2 D. N=3 10 s(s + 2)(s + 5)
Solution: The type of a system is the number of poles at the origin.
4. Which of the following is used for Nyquist plot? A. Characteristic equation B. Open-loop transfer function C. Closed-loop transfer function D. None of these
Solution: Used to determine the stability of closed-loop systems on the basis of open-loop response to steady-state sinusoidal inputs. k s(1 + sT )
5. The closed-loop transfer function of the open-loop transfer function, G(s) = of a unity feedback system is A. 2 k s T +s+k k B. s(1 + sT ) k(1 + sT ) C. s D. None of these
Page 2
Solution: Assuming that the system has a negative feedback, the transfer function is given by T (s) = G(s) 1 + G(s)H(s) k s(1 + sT ) = k 1+ s(1 + sT ) k k = = 2 s(1 + sT ) + k s T +s+k 10 . The system has a s(s + 10)
6. A unity feedback system has an open-loop gain G(s) = steady state velocity error of A. 1 B. 2 C. 0 D. None of these
