a) Specify the locations of poles and zeros and write the transfer function G(s).[5]b) Calculate the angle of departure (from poles)? (note: k=0, pm1, pm2,... in the angle condition of root locus). [5]c) Form the closed loop transfer function and then using Routh table find the jo-axis crossing coordinates and corresponding K? [10]d) Given the break-in coordinate of -2.43, sketch root locus. [5]

If you were designing a bumper for a car, would you prefer it to exhibit elastic or plastic deformation? why? consider the functions of a bumper in both a minor "fender-bender" and a major collision.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.

Which of the following refers to refers to how well the control system responds to sudden changes in the system. a)-transient regulation b)- distributed regulation c)-constant regulation d)-steady-state regulation
