𝑠+6

Fig. 1
(a) Find the transfer function of a feedback control system in Fig 1.
(b) Find the characteristic equation of the feedback control system in Fig 1.
(c) Plot the root locus for the feedback system by manual calculation and by using MATLAB code.
(d) If the desired overshoot is approximately 10% what is the recommended value for K?
Hence, determine the maximum overshoot, time maximum overshoot occurs, and settling time.
(e) Plot the bode diagram for the feedback system. Comment on your result.
