What are the methods for determining the stability of ilnear control system? A third order control system has the characteristic equation s3 + 3408.3 s2 + 1204000 s + 1.5 107 K = 0. Find the value of K for which the system is marginally stable. For such a value of K determine the frequency of the undamped sinusoid in rad/sec of the zero input response. Explain Nyquist Criterion to find the stability of the system. Sketch, the root locus diagram for the closed loop system having a loop transfer function given by G(s) H(s) =
as K varies from zero to infinity.
