Control systems miscellaneous

  1. Consider the following polynomials
    1. s4 + 7s3 + 17s2 + 17s + 6
    2. s4 + 11s3 + 41s2 + 61s + 30
    3. s4 + s3 + 2s2 + 3s + 2.
    Among these polynomials, those which are Hurwitz would include—

    Since all the coefficients in all the there polynomials are positive, we need to construct Hurwitz table for further checking.


    Correct Option: C

    From given figure

    6
    = 20
    log ω1 – log10 10

    or
    log ω1 – 1 = 6/20
    or
    log ω1 = 0·3 + 1
    or
    log ω1 = 1·3
    or
    ω1 = 101·3
    or
    ω1 = 19·95 ≈ 20
    and
    6
    = 20
    log 10ω – logω1

    or
    26
    = 20
    log ω – log20

    or log ω – 1·3 = 26/20 = 1·3
    or
    log ω = 2·6
    or
    ω = 102·6 = 400
    Hence alternative (C) is the correct choice.

    Given that G(s) =
    1
    (s + 2)2

    M(s) =
    G(s)
    (∴ H(s) = 1)
    1 + G(s)H(s)

    ∴ M(s) =
    G(s)
    =
    1/(s + 2)2
    1 + G(s)1 + (1/s + 2)2

    = 1/(s + 2)2 + 1
    The poles are at – 2 ± j1

    Correct Option: C

    Given that G(s) =
    1
    (s + 2)2

    M(s) =
    G(s)
    (∴ H(s) = 1)
    1 + G(s)H(s)

    ∴ M(s) =
    G(s)
    =
    1/(s + 2)2
    1 + G(s)1 + (1/s + 2)2

    = 1/(s + 2)2 + 1
    The poles are at – 2 ± j1
