Creating a Bode plot by analyzing a transfer function

[andrew.tkelly]

Homework Statement

I am constructing a Bode plot from a given transfer function. I having trouble because I am unsure how to rewrite the transfer function in the proper form. What makes this transfer function particularly tricky for me, is that there is no "jω" in the numerator, just ω^2. In all the examples I've seen solved, they always use s = jω, and put the function in the proper form.

Homework Equations

H(jω) = (10ω^2) / [(jω + 10)(jω - 200)]

The Attempt at a Solution

Well, I know how to reduce the denominator values to their proper form, but not the numerator value...because there is no "j"... and no evidence of a j^2 because there is no negative sign in front.

Thank you for reading!

Suppose the transfer function was negative before the "jω" was squared...
