Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions

Question 1 Easy

What does Y_zs(s) represent?

💡 Hint: Remember it's only about the effect of the external input.

Question 2 Easy

How does Y_zi(s) contribute to the total output?

💡 Hint: Focus on initial energy stored in the system.

Question 1

What does Y_zs(s) reflect in terms of the system output?

Response with zero initial conditions
Initial conditions only
Total response from both

💡 Hint: Think about what happens when nothing influences the state of the system.

Question 2

True or False: The zero-input response considers external inputs when determining system behavior.

True
False

💡 Hint: Remember what defines the zero-input response.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a second-order system with a damping ratio, derive both Y_zs(s) and Y_zi(s) from the characteristic equation and initial conditions of the system.

💡 Hint: Look for ways to identify characteristic roots and apply initial conditions correctly.

Challenge 2 Hard

Discuss how both responses would change if the input signal were continuous versus a step function.

💡 Hint: Consider how different input forms affect system responses over time.
