  2. A.
    lag compensator
    B.
    lead compensator
    C.
    lead-lag compensator
    D.
    series compensator

  3. Which of the following represents constant magnitude locus for M = 1?

  4. A.
    x = -0.5
    B.
    x = 0
    C.
    x2 + y2 = 1
    D.
    (x + 1)2 + y2 = 1

  5. Assertion (A): A synchro control transformer has nearly constant impedance across its rotor terminals.

    Reason (R): Rotor of a synchro control transformer is cylindrical so as to give uniform flux distribution.

  6. A.
    Both A and R are correct and R is correct explanation of A
    B.
    Both A and R are correct but R is not correct explanation of A
    C.
    A is correct but R is wrong
    D.
    R is correct but A is wrong

  7. The log magnitude plot of the given figure is for

  8. A.
    type 0 system
    B.
    type 1 system
    C.
    type 2 system
    D.
    either type 0 or type 1 system

  9. Consider the following statements relating to synchros

    1. Rotor of control transformer is either disc shaped or umbrella shaped
    2. Rotor of transmitter has low magnetic reluctance
    3. Transmitter and control transformer pair act as error detector
    Out of above the correct statements are

  10. A.
    1, 2, 3
    B.
    1 and 2
    C.
    2 and 3
    D.
    1 and 3

  11. For a second order system the damping factor is varied from 0 to 1. The locus of poles is

  12. A.
    a straight line on imaginary axis
    B.
    a straight line on real axis
    C.
    a semi circle
    D.
    a circle

  13. Assertion (A): The function has a double pole at s = - 5.

    Reason (R): If the function [G(s)] (s + p)n for n = 1, 2, 3 ... has a finite non-zero value at s = - p, then s = - p is called a pole of order n.

    Both A and R are correct and R is correct explanation of A
    B.
    Both A and R are correct but R is not correct explanation of A
    C.
    A is correct but R is wrong
    D.
    R is correct but A is wrong

  15. In a synchro transmitter, which coil acts as primary?

  16. A.
    Rotor
    B.
    Stator
    C.
    Partly rotor and partly stator
    D.
    Tertiary

  17. Assertion (A): The transient performance of a control system is generally analysed by using unit step function as reference input.

    Reason (R): Impulse is the most common input found in practice.

  18. A.
    Both A and R are correct and R is correct explanation of A
    B.
    Both A and R are correct but R is not correct explanation of A

    C.
    ωd = ωn (1 - ξ)0.5
    D.
    ωd = ωn (1 - ξ2)0.5
