Quiz 2 Paper A 30 minutes; 18 points

• 3 points for a correct answer. Negative marking: Two points will be deducted per wrong
answer.

1. For a first-order lead system with transfer function g(s) = K(ζ s + 1), the corner fre-
quency is given by
(a) 1/ζ (b) π /ζ (c) 2π /ζ (d) 2/ζ

2. Which of the following statements are TRUE for a PI controller ?

I When Kc is constant, and as τI decreases, the response becomes faster, but more
oscillatory.

II The order of the system with PI feedback remains the same.

III As Kc increases, the response becomes faster and more oscillatory to set point changes.

IV Offset is eliminated with PI control.

(a) IV, III, and II (b) I, III, and IV (c) I and IV (d) III and IV

3. If the process transfer function G p (s) = 10/(s − 1), Gv = 1, Gm = 1, and Gc = Kc , the


closed-loop system is stable when
(a) Kc > 10 (b) Kc < 10 (c) Kc < 1/10 (d) Kc > 1/10

ω −> Infinity

ω=0
−1 +1

4. The Nyquist plot qualitatively sketched in figure 1 corresponds to:
(a) P controller (b) PI controller (c) PD controller (d) PID controller

5. A stable system under feedback control should have


(a) GM < 1, PM > 0 (b) GM > 1, PM > 0 (c) GM < 1, PM < 0
(d) GM > 1, PM < 0

6. For a process with transfer function G p (s) = 5/(2s + 1), and with proportional (only)
control (with Gm = 1, Gv = 1, and Gc = Kc = 2), the steady-state offset under feedback
control to unit step change in the set point is:
(a) 10/11 (b) 20/11 (c) 1/11 (d) 2/11
