If the closed-loop transfer function of a control system is given as $$T\left( s \right) = \frac{{s - 5}}{{\left( {s + 2} \right)\left( {s + 3} \right)}},$$     then it is

The pole-zero plot is shown here when the DC gain is equal to 20. The system transfer function is . . . . . . . .

In the case of a second order system described by the differential equation, $$\frac{{J{d^2}{\theta _0}}}{{d{t^2}}} + F\frac{{d{\theta _0}}}{{dt}} + k{\theta _0} = k{\theta _i}$$
(where θ₁ and θ₀ are input and output shaft angles), the natural frequency is given by:

For a lead compensator, whose transfer function is given by $$K\frac{{s + a}}{{s + b}};\,a,\,b \geqslant 0$$

The magnitude and phase relationship between the sinusoidal input and the steady-state output of a system is called as:

Consider the following for a variable reluctance stepper motor used in system:
1. The stator torque acting on the rotor is a function of angular misalignment between stator and rotor teeth.
2. There are two positions of zero torque: $$\theta = {0^ \circ },\,\frac{{{{180}^ \circ }}}{{\text{T}}}$$   (T = number of rotor teeth)
3. Both the torque zero positions are stable.
4. As the stator is excited, the rotor is pulled into the nearest minimum reluctance position.
