Right Answer is: D

SOLUTION

A series RLC circuit with the input applied at the resistor and ground and output taken across the capacitor is drawn as:

Replacing C with 1/sC, and L with sL, the equivalent circuit is redrawn as:

Applying voltage division rule, the voltage across the capacitor is calculated as:

\(V_c(s)=V_i(s)\times \frac{\frac{1}{sC}}{\frac{1}{sC}+sL+R}\)

The closed-loop transfer function will be:

\(\frac{V_c(s)}{V_i(s)}=\frac{\frac{1}{sC}}{\frac{1}{sC}+sL+R}\)

\(\frac{V_c(s)}{V_i(s)}=\frac{1}{{\left( {1 + sRC + {s^2}LC} \right)}}\)
