called as
A.

undamped system.

B.

under damped system.

C.

critically damped system.

D.

over damped system.

The damping ratio is a dimensionless measure describing how oscillations in a system decay
after a disturbance. Many systems exhibit oscillatory behavior when they are disturbed from
their position of static equilibrium. If is zero then there will be no damping, hence it is called
undamped system. Where the spring mass system is completely loss less, the mass would
oscillate indefinitely, with each bounce of equal height to the last. This hypothetical case is
called undamped.
35. Time response for a second order system depends on value of . If > 1 then the system is
called as
A.

undamped system .

B.

under damped system.

C.

over damped system.

D.

critically damped system.

If the system contained high losses, for example if the spring mass experiment were conducted
in a viscous fluid, the mass could slowly return to its rest position without ever overshooting.
This case is called over damped. For over damped system zeta is greater than 1.
36. Time response for a second order system depends on value of . If = 1 then the system is

Between the over damped and under damped cases, there exists a certain level of damping at
which the system will just fail to overshoot and will not make a single oscillation. This case is
called critical damping.
37. Time response for a second order system depends on value of . If = (0 to 1) then the

A.

B.

undamped system.

C.

41. A control system in which control action is somehow dependent on output is known as

A.

open loop system.

B.

closed loop system.

C.

semiclosed loop system.

D.

none of these.

In the closed loop control system, we take the feedback from the output side and based on
the error that is the comparison of the reference point and present output, we are feeding
that error into the input of the controller to get that desired output. So, in closed loop
control system, the control action must be dependent on the output.
42. Which of the following increases with the feedback?
A.

System stability.

B.

Sensitivity.

C.

Gain.

D.

Effects of disturbing signal.

If we want to achieve the stable operation in a system, we need to reduce the system error.
This error is nothing but the difference between the reference point and the present output.
So, the feedback is used to calculate the present error and it is used to feed that error into
the controller. Thereby we can be reduced the error in the output. Hence, the stability of
the system is increased when we are reduced the error by using feedback technique.
43. In case of an open loop control system which of following statement is true?
A.

Output is dependent of control input.

B.

Output is independent of control input.

C.

Only system parameters have effect on control output.

D.

None of these.

In the open loop control systems, we are simply given the input to the controller. So, due
to the environmental or human error, the output can be changed. This error is not at all
controlled in the input side of the controller. Hence, the output of the open loop system is
always independent of the control input.
44. Which of the following is an open loop control system?
A.

Ward Leonard control.

B.

Field controlled dc motor.

C.

Metadyne.

D.

Stroboscope.

In the open loop control system, the control parameter of a control system is assigned by
operator manually. For a field controlled DC motor, the control parameters are the
voltage and the load. If we want to set a specific speed, we have to adjust the voltage or
the load by doing the manual adjustment on those parameters. But due to some errors on
the load side or the voltage side the speed may be varied. That variation cannot be
controlled automatically at this moment. But, we can be controlled the error by manual
actions. Hence, the field controlled DC motor is the best example for the open loop control
system.
45. Mass in force-voltage analogy is analogous to
A.

inductance.

D.

resistance.

46. Phase margin is used to specify which of the following ?

A.

Frequency response.

B.

Absolute stability.

C.

Relative stability.

D.

Time response.

Basically the phase margin and gain margin are used to find out the relative stability of the
system when we are working in the frequency domain. In phase margin, we can be
measured the angular difference between the point on the frequency response at the unit
circle crossing and 180. If the system have at least 40 of phase margin, then the relative
stability of the system is good.
47. Routh Herwitz criterion provides
A.

roots in right half of s plane.

B.

roots in left half of s plane.

C.

roots in right half of s plane and roots on imaginary axis.

D.

roots in left half of s plane and roots on imaginary axis.

According to the Routh Hurwitz stability criterion, for a stable system, it should have the
following characteristics equation. So, we just take a second order system for this example.

Here A2, A1 and A0 should be greater than zero. So, if we find the value of s for any value of
the A2, A1 and A0, the roots can be became as negative value. Hence, the roots are in left
half of the s plane (or) negative half of the s plane.
48. _______________________________ has the tendency to oscillate.
A.

Closed loop system.

B.

Open loop system.

C.

Both A and B.

D.

Semiclosed loop system.

In a closed loop control system, if the loop gain increases, then the loop becomes more
oscillatory and disturbances which takes long time to die out. Finally, the loop gain can be
reached where the disturbances will never die out and hence the loop still continuously
oscillates. So, the closed loop control system has the tendency to oscillate. In order to
maintain loop stability, the gain or sensitivity of the loop must be sufficiently low at the
critical frequency.
49. Steady state stability limit is
A.

equal to transient stability limit.

B.

greater than transient stability limit.

C.

lesser than transient stability limit.

D.

none of these.

If increase in the error in the output side and the system withstands this change and
performs satisfactorily, then the system is said to be in steady state stability. Transient
stability is a fast phenomenon, usually occurring within one second due to the error.
Hence, the time taken by the steady state stability limit is always greater than the
transient stability limit.
50. The steady-state stability limit of a synchronous generator can be increased by
A.

an increase in the excitation of the M/C.

B.

an increase in its reactance.

C.

a decrease in the moment of inertia of the machine.

D.

an increase in the moment of inertia of the machine.

When we are adding more and more load in the synchronous generator, the generated
voltage also gets reduced. At one particular time, the generator may lose the synchronism
from the grid bus bar. So, there must be the occurrence of steady state stability problem.
Hence, to improve this steady state stability limit, we can be increased the excitation of the
machine. Thereby the synchronous generator maintains the same bus bar voltage and it
does not lose the steady state stability.
51. Transfer function of a zero-order-hold system is
A.

( 1 / s )( 1 + e-st ).

B.

( 1 / s )( 1 e-st ).

C.

1 ( 1 /s )e-st.

D.

1 + ( 1 / s )e-st.

The zero-order hold is the simplest reconstruction circuit and it assumes zero processing
delay in converting between digital to analog. Hence, from the equation (1 / sT) (1 e-sT)
we can achieve zero processing delay. This Laplace transformed equation is converting a
discrete time signal to a continuous time signal by holding each sample value for one
sample interval.
52. A system is denoted as dy / dt + 2y = 4tu ( t ), the ramp component in the forced response will

A.

0.

B.

1 / ( 1 + Kp ).

C.

infinity.

D.

1 / Kp.

The steady state error of a stable type 0 unity feedback system is

The static position error constant KP is defined by

Thus, the steady state error in terms of the static position error constant KPof a stable type
0 unity feedback system is given by

54. The no. of roots of s3 + 5s2 + 7s + 3 = 0, in the right half of the s-plane is
A.

0.

B.

1.

C.

2.

D.

3.

According to the Routh Hurwitz criteria, the negative term is not present in the given
characteristics equation. Hence, the system is stable. So, in a stabilized system, no roots
present in the right half of the s-plane. Thus, zero roots are present in the right half of the
s-plane.
55. Sinusoidal oscillators are
A.

stable.

B.

unstable.

C.

marginally stable.

D.

conditionally stable.

In a sinusoidal, it does not reach the final steady state value at all time. It still oscillates
continuously. Hence, the system tends to unstable. So, the sinusoidal oscillators are
unstable signal generators.
56. If the gain of the open loop system is doubled, the gain margin
A.

is not affected.

B.

gets doubled.

C.

becomes half.

D.

becomes one-fourth.

If the ARC be the value of the gain of the open loop system at a critical frequency C, then
the gain margin GM is defined as

Hence, if the gain of an open loop gain gets doubled, then the gain margin becomes half.
57. Phase margin of a system is used to specify
A.

absolute stability.

B.

relative stability.

C.

time response.

D.

none of these.

Basically the phase margin and gain margin are used to find out the relative stability of the
system when we are working in the frequency domain. In phase margin, we can be
measured the angular difference between the point on the frequency response at the unit
circle crossing and 180. If the system have at least 40 of phase margin, then the relative
stability of the system is good.
58. Transfer function G ( s ) = ( s + a ) / ( s + b ), at what value the phase of lead compensator is
maximum ?
A.

ab.

B.

( ab ).

C.

a / b.

D.

None of these.

By comparing this equation and given equation, we have T = 6 and T = 2.

59. A linear discrete-time system has the following characteristic equation, z3 0.81 z = 0, so The
system is
A.

marginally stable.

B.

stable.

C.

unstable.

D.

none of these.

The given characteristics equation is z3 0.81 z = 0 z (z2 0.81) = 0. So, the roots are
z1 = 0, z2 = 0.9, z3 = 0.9. Hence, all roots of the above equation lie inside the unit circle. That
means the roots are less than one. Thus, the system is stable.
60. For making an unstable system stable
A.

gain of the system should be decreased.

B.

gain of the system should be increased.

C.

no. of zero to the loop transfer functions should be decreased.

D.

no. of zero to the loop transfer functions should be increased.

If a system is unstable, then the poles are presented in the right hand side of the s-plane.
So, if we increase the gain of the systems, then there is a chance of shifting the poles from
the right hand side of the s-plane to the left hand side of the s-plane. Therefore, we know
that the system will be stable no matter how much we increase the gain. However, if we
decrease the gain, the diagram will contract and the system might become unstable
61. For a transfer function H (s) = P(s) / Q(s), where P (s) and Q (s) are polynomials in s. Then
A.

the degree of P (s) is always greater than the degree of Q (s).

B.

the degree of P (s) and Q (s) are same.

C.

degree of P (s) is independent of degree of Q (s).

D.

maximum degree of P (s) and Q (s) differ at most by one.

If the degree of the numerator P (s) and the denominator Q (s) are dependent with each
other, then the poles and zeros of the system may gets placed on the same roots. Then the
transfer function is wrong. So, the degree of the numerator P (s) and the denominator Q
(s) should be independent with each other. This is the one of the necessary conditions for
transfer function.
62. Transfer function of the control system depends on
A.

system parameters alone.

B.

nature of the input.

C.

initial conditions of input and output.

D.

nature of the output.

The transfer function is nothing but the ratio to the Laplace transform of the output to the
Laplace transform of the input. So, based on the input and output characteristics the
system characteristics can be changed. But, if we adjust the system parameter, the output

can change with respect to the input of the system. Hence, due to this action, the transfer
function also can be changed. Thus, the transfer function of the control system depends on
the parameters of the system alone.
63. Sparking between the contacts can be reduced by inserting
A.

a capacitor in series with the contacts.

B.

a capacitor in parallel with the contacts.

C.

a reactor in the line.

D.

a resistor in the line.

An arc between two electrodes can be initiated by ionization of atmospheric air. If we

connect a capacitor across the contacts of the electrodes, there is a chance to make a short
circuit by capacitor. Hence, there is no air gap between contacts and thereby sparking can
be reduced.
64. Error constants of a system are measure of
A.

transient state response.

B.

steady state as well as transient state response.

C.

relative stability.

D.

steady state response.

In the steady state condition, the accuracy of the time response is the indication of how
well the system response achieving the final settling stage. Ideally, the output y (t) equals
to the reference signal u (t) and thereby the error e (t) is zero because error is the
difference between the reference signal and the output signal. In practical, it is not
possible. But, the objective is to force the output signal to reach our reference signal. For
that purpose only, we are introduced the error constants to achieve the steady state
response. So, if we adjust the error constants, then the systems steady state response also
varies.
65. Slope of asymptote in Bode plot of 2nd order system is _____________________ per octave.
A.

18 dB.

B.

12 dB.

C.

6 dB.

D.

3 dB.

Basically, the slope of asymptote in a Bode plot of any system are n 20 dB per decade (or)
n 6 dB per octave (an octave is a change in frequency by a factor of 2). Here, n is the

order of the system. Hence, for a second order system there might be (2 6 = 12) dB per
octave.
66. The graph of an electrical network has N nodes and B branches. The number of links, L with
respect to the choice of a tree, is given by
A.

B N + 1.

B.

B + N.

C.

N B + 1.

D.

N 2B 1.

For a graph with N nodes, the number of branches in each tree T must be; T = N 1. An
important relationship for circuit analysis is; B = L + T. where B is the number of branches
in the graph and L is the number of links removed to form the tree. Hence, the number of
links L = B N + 1.

67.
A.

It is a PR function.

B.

It is not a PR function.

C.

Data insufficient.

D.

None of these.

PR function tests reveals that all the quotients of polynomial in the numerator are not +ve
and also there is a zero on the r.h.s of s-plane. This clearly proves that the given function is
not a PR function. No more confirmatory testing is needed.
68. First Foster form of a LC network represents which element in the beginning?
A.
