A closed-loop control system is shown in Figure P2.50.
(a) Determine the transfer function
$$
T(s)=Y(s) / R(s) .
$$
(b) Determine the poles and zeros of $T(s)$.
(c) Use a unit step input, $R(s)=1 / s$, and obtain the partial fraction expansion for $Y(s)$ and the value of the residues.
(d) Plot $y(t)$ and discuss the effect of the real and complex poles of $T(s)$. Do the complex poles or the real poles dominate the response?
