Is this Circuit Actually a Second Order in Terms of Transfer Function?

AI Thread Summary
The circuit in question is being analyzed for its order based on the transfer function v1/v2. Despite the initial assumption of it being second order, the presence of only one reactive element indicates it is actually a first order circuit. Participants in the discussion are encouraged to share their derived responses for further clarification. The focus remains on understanding the implications of the reactive element in determining the circuit's order. Accurate assessment of the circuit's characteristics is essential for proper frequency response analysis.

Hello, I'm studying the attached circuit in my first order frequency response chapter, and I swear this thing is a second order circuit (in terms of the transfer function v1/v2), am I doing something wrong?

Only one reactive element, so it's first order.
 
can you show us the response you derived so far?
 

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
