Learning

Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

Define the impulse response in the context of an LTI system.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how the system reacts to a quick input.

Question 2

Easy

What does the step response represent?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider a signal that turns on suddenly and stays on.

Question 1

What does the impulse response describe?

  • System output to a step function
  • System output to an impulse function
  • System input only

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think of how systems respond to instantaneous energies.

Question 2

True or False: The step response can be derived by differentiating the impulse response.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider what happens to a signal when it is created continuously.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A system has an impulse response given as h(t) = e^(-at)u(t) for a > 0. Derive the step response s(t).

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the integration technique for the exponential function.

Question 2

If a system's step response is known as s(t) = 1 - e^(-bt) for t >= 0, find the impulse response h(t).

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how differentiation unveils the changes in outputs over time.
