Question 1:
Consider a plant with transfer function G(s)=(s+4)/(s+2)(s-1). Design an overall system (feedback with
lead/lag compensator) to meet the following specifications.
a) position error<=10%
b) Overshoot<=5%
c) Settling time<=4.5 seconds
d) Rise time as small as possible

Question 2:
Consider a plant with transfer function G(s)= 2 /s(s+1)(s+5). Design an overall system (feedback with
lead/lag compensator) (feedback with lead/lag compensator) to meet the following specifications.
a) Velocity error as small as possible
b) Overshoot<=5%
c) Settling time< 5 seconds
d) Rise time as small as possible

Question 3:
Consider the following equation and apply Routh’s test to determine the number of unstable roots
A) 2s4+s3+5s2+3s+4
B) 2s5+s4+7s3+3s2+4s+2
C) 2s5+s4+7s3+3s2+4s+1.5

Question 4:
Consider the below given system where G(s)= 8 / (s+1)(s2+2s+2) and find whether system is stable or
not?
