1. Wr ite the transfer function, VVout

2. Gi ven C = 1 m F
, find the values of R and L such that x = 0 .707
and the undamped natural frequency is 5 kHz. ( Don’t forget to convert to
rad/sec!!! )
3. Using the same values of L and C from part(2), and the locations of
any system pole(s) and zero(s) given R = 1000•.W Sketch the unit step
response, clearl y i ndicating the time and magnitude scaling. (Hi nt: use a
dominant pole approximation.) Use the IVT and FVT to show that your
response starts and ends at the appropriate values.
4. Sketch the log Magnitude vs log frequency, and linear phase vs log frequency (Bo de plot) for t his system based on your calculated poles from
part 3.
5. Again using C = 1 x 10 -6 F and R = 1000 W now let L = 0 H . (i.e.
Remove the inductor from the circuit) Calculate the location of the pole
and compare this to the dominant pole found in part 2.

You h ave been given the system illustrated ab ove. The system consist of a
cylinder with a mass (m) with a r adius (r=0. 5 m) which spin s about an axle.
The cylinder rolls without slip on the ground. Attac hed to the axle housing are
a d amp er (c), a spring (k=200 N/m), and a force source (f ). You measure th e
following resp onse x(t) to a step input of the force source.

Frequency (rad/sec)
Yo u perform a frequency analysis of the system shown above and obtain the
bode plot shown above. The inertia J=15 N/ m 2 .
1. Using the data in the bode plot determine damping ratio and natural frequency for this system.
2. Using J and the values determined in part 1, determine c and k for the
system.
3. Determine an expression for the system output for an input sin (wt)
where w=1.1, 10, and 20 rad/s.
