  1. Consider a closed loop system shown in figure (a) below. The root locus for it is shown in figure (b). The closed-loop transfer function for the system is—


    1. K
      1 + (0·5s + 1) (10s + 1)

    2. K
      (s + 2) (s + 0·1)

    3. K
      1 + K (0·5s + 1) (10s + 1)

    4. K
      K + (0·5s + 1) (10s + 1)
Correct Option: D

From root locus, the poles of G(s) lie at s = – 0·1 and s = – 2.
Hence we can have G(s) of the form KG(s) F

=
K
(0·5s + 1) (10s + 1)

Hence the closed-loop transfer function
=
C(s)
R(s)

=
KG(s)
1 + KG(s) H(s)

Since, H(s) = 1, we have
C(s)
=
KG(s)
R(s)1 + KG(s)

=
K/(0·5s + 1) (10s + 1)
1 + K/(0·5s + 1) (10s + 1)

=
K
(0·5s + 1) (10s + 1) + K

Hence (D) is the correct choice.
