Question:

A system has the following characteristic polynomial equation and it has three sign changes in the first column of Routh array. Choose correct choice for the number of roots on right and left side of s-plane. \[ s^4 + 3s^3 + 10s^2 + 5s + 10 = 0 \]

Show Hint

Number of right-hand plane roots = number of sign changes in the first column of the Routh array.

  • 3 roots on right side & 2 roots on left side
  • 2 roots on right side & 3 roots on left side
  • 4 roots on right side & 1 root on left side
  • 1 root on right side & 4 roots on left side

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

According to Routh-Hurwitz criterion, the number of sign changes in the first column of the Routh array corresponds to the number of poles in the right-half s-plane. Since there are 3 sign changes, the system has 3 roots on the right side and 2 on the left side.
