SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(c)
Sol. There are two types coding:-
Source coding techniques are used in PCM and DM for converting analog signal to digital i.e., train of binary digits.
Line coding converts stream of binary digits into a formal code. It is used for data transmission of a digital signal over a transmission line. This process is chosen to avoid overlap and distortion of signal such as Inter-Symbol Interference.
AMI(Alternate Mark Inversion) is a synchronous clock encoding technique. It uses bipolar pulses to represent logical 1 values and a logical 0 is represented by no symbol. So, It is a three level system. This code has zero dc component for pulse transmission of random binary data.
S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. On a conducting surface boundary, the tangential component of the Electric field is zero. It is absorbed by the conducting surface. Only normal component of the Electric Field exist.
S3. Ans. (d)
Sol. In full wave circuit using centre tapped transformer PIV = 2V_m.
So, PIV = 2 × 30 = 60 V
S4. Ans.(b)
Sol. Bundled conductor are used for reducing corona loss and radio interference because it reduces voltage gradient. Hence, bundled conductors have higher capacitance and lower value of inductive reactance.
S5. Ans.(a)
Sol. FTP(File Transfer Protocol) is an application layer protocol which moves files between local and remote file systems from one system to another over the internet. It runs on the top of TCP. It uses two TCP connections i.e. data and control connections in parallel. Control Connection at port 21 and Data connection at port 20. FTP is out-of-band. Out-of-band means data that is transferred through a stream independent from the main in-band data stream.
S6. Ans(d)
Sol. BCD (Binary coded Decimal) Number is from 0 to 9, which requires four bits to store. As the maximum number of the system (15) can best represented by 4 bits. It is also called as 8421 code to represent maximum number 15.
S7. Ans.(c)
S8. Ans.(a)
Sol. Given:
R = 5 Ω
L = 0.4 H
V_dc = 50 V
Energy stored in a field is
E = 1/2 LI^2
Current in the coil is
⇒ I = V_dc/R
⇒ I = 50/5
⇒ I = 10 A
Now,
E = 1/2(0.4)〖(10)〗^2
So, E = 20 Joules
S9. Ans.(b)
S10. Ans.(c)
Sol. Packet switching is a method of transmitting data in which long messages are sub-divided into packets. In this resources are not reserved but are allocated on demand. It follows first-come first serve principle for data.
