DCT D CT A A Act DT DT DRT D RT B B BRT DT DT: Cs Cs Gsrs

This document discusses transfer functions, which relate the output of a system to the input. It provides examples of how to derive the transfer function from a differential equation and use it to find the system response. Specifically, it shows how to: 1) Take the Laplace transform of a differential equation to get an algebraic equation relating the input and output transforms; 2) Form the ratio of the output and input transforms to get the transfer function; 3) Use the transfer function to find the system response to different inputs like a step function. Exercises are also provided to practice deriving transfer functions from differential equations and using them to solve problems.

Derivations of the rule polynomial of the differential equation. Also, we can find

A general nth-order, linear, time-invariant differential C ( s) G ( s) R( s)
