Question 1

Applying Kirchoff’s Current Law to the network.

V ¿ (s ) V ¿ ( s )−I c ( s ) I c ( s)
+ I c ( s )= +
R L1 (s) Cs

V ¿ (s ) V ( s ) I c (s) I c (s)
+ I c ( s )= ¿ − +
R L1(s ) L1 (s) Cs

Combining the terms

1 1 V (s )
( + +1)= ¿
C s L1 s R

Transfer function can be expressed as

1 1 1
+ +
I c ( s ) C s L1 s R
G ( s )= =
V ¿(s ) R

R
1+ +C s
L1 s
G ( s )=
R .C s

Which is the transfer function.

Question 2

Equations of motion for the two masses

For mass M1
 F ( s )−K 1 ( X 1 ( s )−X 2 ( s ) ) −v ( X 1 ( s )− X 2 ( s ) ) =M 1 s2 X 1 (s)

For Mass M2

K 1 ( X 1 ( s )−X 2 ( s ) ) −( K 1 X 1 ( s ) )=M 2 s X 2 (s)

2

Expressing X1 in terms of X2, we obtain

F ( s ) +(v + K 1 ) X 2 (s )
X 1 ( s )=
M 1 s 2 ( s )+ v + K 1

Equation for M2 becomes

K1
( F ( s ) +(v + K 1 ) X 2 (s)
2
M 1 s ( s )+ v + K 1 )(
− K 2 X 2 ( s ) )=M 2 s 2 X 2 (s )
