Which of the following statements regarding linear systems are true?

An active system is a system equipped with a vibration cancellation device.

The total rms response of an active system is the "linear" sum of the active and passive contributions.

Phase matters when active and passive contributions contribute at the same sinusoidal frequency.

An "ideal" coupling assumes no rotational degrees are involved.

In an ideal coupling the cut forces are a zero system (force balance).

A coupled system's governing equations are the equations for the isolated systems and the coupling
conditions.
Key concepts

• Linear system

• Frequency response function

• Complex quantity (acceleration, force, sound pressure etc)

• Passive system – Active system

• Coupling conditions
