Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given the function Y(s) = (4s + 8) / (s^2 + 2s + 2), derive the time-domain function using the Inverse Laplace Transform and discuss the behavior based on pole locations.

💡 Hint: Start by factoring the denominator and remembering how to deal with the resulting terms.

Challenge 2 Hard

A system has a Laplace function of Y(s) = (s + 3) / (s^2 + 4s + 5). Find the time-domain response and analyze the transient behavior.

💡 Hint: Consider the discriminant of the quadratic denominator to predict damping level.
