Answer to Problem 1RQ

The north magnetic pole of the earth is a south polarity.

Explanation of Solution

Description:

The earth itself contains magnetic poles. As unlike poles attract each other, the north magnetic pole of a compass needle is attracted to the south magnetic pole of the earth and vice versa.

Hence the north magnetic pole is a geographic south pole.

Conclusion:

The north magnetic pole is a geographic south pole.

3. You have come to encounter an LTI system. You have no idea how the system behaves. So, you decide to drive the system with a particular input and measure the output. When you put the input u(t) = et 1(t), you find that the output y(t) = (1-e) 1(t). You can assume zero initial conditions. Now, find the transfer function of the system.
