The Laplace transform of the step response of a system is given by

$$ Y(s)=\frac{100}{s(s+100)} $$

The rise time is defined as the time taken for the response to go from 0.1 to 0.9 of its final value. The settling time is defined as the time taken for the response to reach 0.98 of its final value.

For this system, the rise time ( $T_r$ ), settling time ( $T_s$ ), and time constant ( $T_c$ ), all expressed in seconds, are

A

$T_r=0.022, T_s=0.04, T_c=0.01$

B

$T_r=0.22, T_s=0.404, T_c=0.01$

C

$T_r=2.2, T_s=4.04, T_c=1.01$

D

$T_r=22, T_s=40.4, T_c=10.1$

Consider the standard second-order system of the form $\frac{\omega_n^2}{s^2 + 2\zeta\omega_n s + \omega_n^2}$ with the poles $p$ and $p^\ast$ having negative real parts. The pole locations are also shown in the figure. Now consider two such second-order systems as defined below:

System 1: $\omega_n = 3$ rad/sec and $\theta = 60^{\circ}$
System 2: $\omega_n = 1$ rad/sec and $\theta = 70^{\circ}$
