The document discusses frequency response and polar plots. It defines frequency response as the quantitative measure of the output magnitude and phase as a function of input frequency. It then provides the transfer function for a second order system and shows how to obtain the magnitude and angle of the frequency response by substituting s=jw. It defines a polar plot as a graphical representation of frequency response where the tip of a phasor traces a curve as w changes from 0 to infinity, representing the magnitude and angle changes. An example problem demonstrates drawing the polar plot for a given transfer function.
