An attitude control system for a satellite vehicle within the earth's atmosphere is shown in Figure P7.6. The transfer functions of the system are

and

(a) Draw the root locus of the system as K varies from 0 to ˆž.
(b) Determine the gain K that results in a system with a settling time (with a 2% criterion) less than 12 seconds and a damping ratio for the complex roots greater than 0.50.
