  1. For the transfer function
    G(s) H(s) =
    1
    s(s + 1) (s + 0·5)

    the phase cross-over frequency is—
    1. 0.5 rad/sec
    2. 0.707 rad/sec
    3. 1.732 rad/sec
    4. 2 rad/sec
Correct Option: B

Phase cross-over frequency for the given transfer function

G(s)H(s) =
1
s(s + 1)(s + 0·5)

∠G(s H(s) = – 90° – tan–1(ω/1) – tan–1(ω/0.5)
– 180° = – 90° – tan–1 ω – tan–1 (2ω)
or 90° = tan–1
ω + 2ω
at ω = ωP
1 – ω.2ω

or tan 90° =
at ω = ωP
1 – 2ω2

or
1
=
at ω = ωP
01 – 2ω2

or 1 – 2 ω2P = 0
or ωP = 1/√2
ωP = 0.707 rad/sec.
