For the PID controller Gc(s)=5(12s²+4s+1)/(4s) and process Gp(s)=10/(200s+1), the characteristic equation of the closed loop is

  • A6s²+102s+1=0
  • 700s²+102s+25=0
  • C100s²−196s−25=0
  • D240s³+812s²+204s+1=0

Explanation

1+GcGp=0 ⟹ 4s(200s+1)+50(12s²+4s+1)=0 ⟹ 800s²+4s+600s²+200s+50=0 ⟹ 1400s²+204s+50=0, dividing by 2: 700s²+102s+25=0.
