QUESTION#01
Use the subplot command to provide following three plots in one figure:

Plot 1: sin(t), sin(3t), sin(5t)

Plot 2: cos(t), cos(3t), cos(5t)
Plot 3: tan(t), tan(3t), tan5t)
For t [-1 , 1]. It is important to use different color schemes to differentiate
the harmonics; provide legend, xlabel, ylabel and title for each plot.

CODE
t=-1:0.1:1;
y1=sin(t);
y2=sin(3*t);
y3=sin(5*t);
subplot(3,1,1)
plot(t,y1,'g',t,y2,'b',t,y3,'r')
xlabel('time(sec)')
ylabel('sin(t)')
title('plot1')
legend('sint','sin(3t)','sin(5t)')
c1=cos(t);
c2=cos(3*t);
c3=cos(5*t);
subplot(3,1,2)
plot(t,c1,'g',t,c2,'b',t,c3,'r')
xlabel('time(sec)')
ylabel('cos(t)')
title('plot2')
legend('cost','cos(3t)','cos(5t)')
z1=tan(t);
z2=tan(3*t);
z3=tan(5*t);
subplot(3,1,3)
plot(t,z1,'g',t,z2,'b',t,z3,'r')
xlabel('time(sec)')
ylabel('tan(t)')
title('plot3')

QUESTION#02
Write a MATLAB function, which takes the following two inputs:

A vector (of variable length) representing resistors in an electrical

circuit
A flag representing whether resistors and in series or parallel.

The function should return equivalent resistance.

CODE
function [Req]=reqsp(R,F)
R=input('enter vector R for resistance=')
F=input('enter flag for series parallel=')
if(F==1)
Req=sum(R)
else
if(F==2)

QUESTION#3
Define the symbolic variable x. Make use of this variable to define the symbolic function
sin(1/x). Then, plot the function from 0 to 2. What do you see? Why might the plotting routine be
having trouble plotting this function?

CODE
syms x;
y=sin(1/x);
ezplot(y)
axis([0 2 -2 2])

QUESTION#04
The natural response of a series RC circuit is given by
V(t) = V0 e-t /RC
Write a MATLAB function that takes two inputs R and C, and plots the natural
response of this circuit for t [0,2]

CODE
function v=rc(r,c)
r=input('enter the value of r=')
c=input('enter the value of c=')
t=0:0.1:2;
vo=100;
v= vo.*exp(-t./r*c);
plot(t,v,'b*-')
