Homework 3: Block Diagrams and Modeling of Mechanical


Systems
Due: Sep 19, 2007

Problem 1. For the given circuit, create a block diagram which takes V1 (s) as an input and yields
V2 (s) as an output. 1

Problem 2. Reduce the block diagram given to a single block which has V1 (s) as its input and
V2 (s) as its output.

Problem 3. Consider the system shown.

a) Find the matrix equation of motion for the 3DOF system shown.
1
As usual, let V1 (s), V2 (s) be defined as the Laplace Transforms of V1 (t), V2 (t)
