SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(c)
Sol. Positive and negative ions are immobile ions so they don’t move. So, Electron has the greatest mobility.
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. . For any system to be dynamic it must have memory. Here, the output value of the independent variable at a given time not depends only on the input at the same time , so the system is not memoryless.
S3. Ans.(b)
Sol. Given:
Amplitude of message signal = Am
Frequency of message signal = fm
We know that,
Phase sensitivity = Kp
BW of PM signal(BW) = 2(Δf + fm)
and frequency deviation(Δf) = Am Kp fm
Now, BW = 2( Am Kp fm + fm) = 2( Am Kp + 1)fm
Therefore, The bandwidth of y(t) depends on both fm and Am.
S4. Ans.(b)
Sol. The sum of two or more arbitrary sinusoids is periodic if the ratio of the sinusoids is rational number. So, under certain condition the signal is periodic.
S5. Ans.(d)
Sol. The Fourier transform of a Gaussian signal in time domain is also Gaussian signal in the frequency domain.
Fourier transform is
e^(〖-πt〗^2 ) □(↔┴(Fourier Transorm) ) e^(〖-πf〗^2 )
S6. Ans.(a)
Sol. Given:
V_max = 64 mV
V_min = 16 mV
Now,
VSWR = V_max/V_min
⇒ VSWR = 64/16
So, VSWR = 4
S7. Ans.(a)
Sol. JFET operates in depletion mode only because it works only when a reverse voltage VGS is applied between the gate and source and due to this VGS, the width of the depletion layers increased. Channel width and drain current both decrease so it operates only in depletion mode.
S8. Ans.(c)
Sol. Two resistors of 50 Ω are connected in series and in parallel with 100 Ω resistor.
The equivalent resistance is
⇒ R_eq = (50 + 50) || 100
⇒ R_eq = 100 || 100
⇒ 1/R_eq =(100 × 100)/(100 + 100)
⇒ 1/R_eq =10000/200
So, R_eq = 50 Ω
S9. Ans.(c)
Sol. CISC stands for “Complex Instructions Set Computing” and RISC stands for “Reduced Instructions Set Computing”. Hence, a RISC processor has less number of instructions.
S10. Ans.(a)
Sol.
AD+ABCD+ACD+A ̅ B+A C ̅ D+ A ̅( B) ̅
= AD+ABCD+ACD+A C ̅ D+ A ̅( B) ̅ + A ̅ B
=AD(1+AB+C+C ̅ )+A ̅(B+B ̅)
=AD+A ̅ [∵ B+B ̅ =1]
=AD+(A ) ̅(1+D) [∵ 1 = 1 + D]
=AD+A ̅D+A ̅
=A+D(A+A ̅)
=A+D
