Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A control system consists of two transfer functions: G1(s) = 4/(2s + 3) and G2(s) = 6/(s + 1), what is the overall transfer function G_total(s)?

💡 Hint: Focus on multiplying the numerators and the denominators correctly.

Challenge 2 Hard

In a series connection, System A has a transfer function of G_A(s) = 10/(5s + 2), and System B is G_B(s) = 3/(s + 4). Calculate the total system response G_total(s) and interpret what it means.

💡 Hint: Remember to multiply correctly and analyze the impact of resultant system.
