Response:

Given circuit diagram in s-domain:

From this we can write the following expression by using voltage division rule:

................ (1)

By taking inverse Laplace transform on both sides we can get impulse response of this system

................................ impulse response.

To find the step response we have to substitute

in equation (1)

By using partial fractions we can write the above expression as below:

By taking inverse Laplace transform we can get

......................... step reponse.

I hope this helps you....................
