Q1. Consider the non-standard second-order system described by the transfer function
( )
𝐺(𝑠) = .
a. Calculate the peak time and percent maximum overshoot of the system by using the
denominator as we do if not requested otherwise. Note that since the system is not in standard
form, this is expected to give an approximate result at best.
b. Calculate the step response of the system analytically.
c. Calculate the exact peak time and percent maximum overshoot using your result in part-b.

𝐺(𝑠) =
(𝑠 + 1)(𝑠 + 7)
Hint: Parameterize the required complex CL poles as 𝑠 = −𝛽 ± 𝑗𝜔 where 𝜔 is known (by the require-
ments above). To have these CL poles, find a 3rd order polynomial in 𝛽 whose roots (which can be
found using Matlab) will give you possible values for 𝛽.
