The amplitude ratio for the sinusoidal response of __________ is < 1?

Correct answer: B. First order system

  • A. Transportation lag
  • B. First order system
  • C. Second order system
  • D. None of these

Explanation

For a first-order system, the sinusoidal amplitude ratio is 1 divided by the square root of 1 plus the squared frequency time constant, so it is less than one at nonzero frequency. A pure transportation lag changes phase but not amplitude.
