-Capacitor (RLC) circuit to the standard 2nd order system transfer function incontrol course. This laboratory also teaches students about an application of standard 2nd ordertransfer function that they would see in their career. Students determine the 2nd order modelingfor a linear time invariant system. They exercise how the location of poles can be changed basedon the variation of damping ratio and natural frequency parameters. These responses illustrate asover damped, under damped, undamped, and critically damped. They learn about the impact ofdamping ratio and natural frequency responses on the step and the frequency responseperformances. In the second part of this laboratory students estimate the system parameters froma given time domain
