Solution:

The characteristic equation of series RLC circuit is given by:

Comparing with s2 + 2ξωns + ωn2 = 0, we have:



QUESTION: 2

For the unity feedback control system shown below, by what factor the amplifier gain K should be multiplied so that the damping ratio is increased from 0.3 to 0.9?

Solution:

Characteristic equation of given system is
1 + G(s) H(s) = 0 

Here, 

For ξ1 = 0.3, gain = K1
For ξ2 = 0.9, gain = K2

QUESTION: 3

A system is shown in figure below

What are the values of K and α respectively so that the system has a damping ratio of 0.7 and an undamped natural frequency ωn of 4 rad/sec ?

Solution:

From given block diagram, the closed loop transfer function is

Characteristic equation is,
s2 + (2 + Kα) s + K = 0
Here, ωn = -√K
and 2ξωn = (2 + kα)
Given, ωn = 4 rad/sec 
∴ K = 16
Also, ξ = 0.7
∴ 2 x 0.7 x 4 = (2 + 16α) 
or, (2 + 16α) = 5.6
or, 
α = 3.6/16 = 0.225

QUESTION: 4

For type-2 system, the steady state error due to parabolic input is
Solution:

For parabolic input, 


= Finite for type-2 system

The settling time of the system for 5% tolerance band is,
Solution:

Characteristic equation is: 1 + G(s) H(s) = 0 or, s2 + s + 1 = 0
Here, 

For 5% tolerance band, settling time is

QUESTION: 6

Solution:
QUESTION: 7

Consider a unity feedback control system as shown in figure below:

The error signal e(t) for a unit ramp input for T ≥ 0 is
Solution:


Given, 


Here, A = -T, 6 = 1, C = T2


Taking inverse Laplace transform on both sides, we get:
C(t) = (-T + t + Te-t/T)
∴ Error signal,
e(t) = c(t) - r(t)
= c(t) - t = - T + Te-t/T
= T(1 - e-t/T)

QUESTION: 8

A second order system has a closed loop transfer function 

If the system is initially at rest and subjected to a unit step input at t = 0, the third peak in the response will occur at
Solution:



For 3rd peak, n = 5
(3rd overshoot is the third peak)

QUESTION: 9

A closed servo system is represented by the differential equation

where c is the displacement of the output shaft r is the displacement of the input shaft anc e = r - c.
The damping ratio and natural frequency for this system are respectively
Solution:

Given, 


or, s2C(s) + 8s C(s) = 64 [R(s) - C(s)]
or, 


Hence, ωn = 8 rad/sec
and 2ξωn = 8 or ξ = 0.5 

QUESTION: 10

The poles of a closed loop control system art located at -1 ± j.
For the given system match List-I (Time domain specifications) with List - II (Values) and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists
List - I
A. Damping ratio
B. Undamped natural frequency (rad/s)
C. Damping factor
D. Settling time (in secs)
List - II
1. 4.0
2. 1.0
3. 0.707
4. 1.414
Codes:
Solution:

Given, poles are at s = -1 ± j ∴ Characteristic equation is
(s+1)2 + 1 =0
or, s2 + 2s + 2 = 0
Comparing above equation with

we have, ωn = √2 rad/sec
and 2ξωn = 2

Undamped natural frequency,
Damping factor = ξωn = 1
Settling time (For 2% tolerance band) is

Damped natural frequency is

= 1 rad/sec

QUESTION: 11

Consider the block diagram of a control system shown below.

What is the value of gain k such that the system is non oscillatory yet has the lowest possible settling time to step input?
Solution:

Forward gain,

Here, ωn = 10 rad/s and 2ξωn > = 100 K
or, 

For no-oscillation and to have lowest possible settling time ξ = 1.
∴ K = 1/5 = 0.2

QUESTION: 12

Assertion (A): The "dominant pole" concept is used to control the dynamic performance of the system, whereas the “insignificant poles” are used for the purpose of. ensuring that the controller transfer function can be realized by physical components.
Reason (R): if the magnitude of the real part of a pole is at least 5 to 10 times that of a dominant pole or a pair of complex dominant poles, the pole may be regarded as insignificant in so far as the transient response is concerned.
Solution:


Both assertion and reason are true. However, the correct explanation of assertion is that the poles having real part magnitude 5 to 10 times of the magnitude of real part of dominant poles doesn't affect the transient response (dynamic performance) of the system to a great extent due to which they are termed as insignificant poies and hence are neglected for transient stability study purpose.

QUESTION: 13

Assertion (A): The step-function input represents an instantaneous change in the reference input.
Reason (R): If the input is an angular position of a mechanical shaft, a step input represents the sudden rotation of the shaft.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is a correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not a correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Solution:
QUESTION: 14

Consider the following statements related to second order control system with unit step input:
1. The right-half s-plane corresponds to negative damping.
2. Negative damping gives a response that doesn’t grows in magnitude without bound with time.
3. The imaginary axis corresponds to zero damping.
4. The maximum overshoot is often used to measure the relative stability of a control system.
5. Higher the damping in the system larger is the peak overshoot in the transient response of the system.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?
Solution:

Negative damping gives a response that grows in magnitude without bound in time. Hence, statement-2 is false.
Since  therefore higher is the damping in the system, less is the peak overshoot of the system. Hence, statement-5 is not correct

QUESTION: 15

Which of the following is not true regarding addition of a pole to the forward-path transfer function?
Solution:

With addition of a pole to the forward-path transfer function, bandwidth will reduce.
Since therefore rise time will increase.
Since rise time  therefore stability will decrease.

QUESTION: 16

We know that, maximum overshot is

Mp is independent of wn. So Mp ∝ ξ only.
