SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(d)
Sol. Options a, b, c are true but (d) is not true since in a negatively skewed distribution, mode > median > mean.
S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. Telnet is an application protocol used on the Internet or local area network to provide a bidirectional interactive text-oriented communication facility using a virtual terminal connection. It enables a user to manage an account or device remotely.
S3. Ans.(a)
Sol. Applying Kirchhoff’s Voltage law in the given circuit, we get
50 = 15 + 10+ 15 + Vx
⇒ V_x + 40 = 50
So, V_x = 10 volts
S4. Ans.(c)
Sol. The cache memory is more faster than the main or primary memory. Cache memory is a high speed semiconductor memory with very less access time as compared to main memory.
S5. Ans.(a)
Sol. All Pass Circuit passes all frequencies which are present in the input without attenuation but provides different phase shift to each frequencies. It is also called “Phase Corrector or delay Equalizer”.
S6. Ans.(d)
Sol: BJT, MOSFET, GTO(Gate Turn Off) and IGBT all are unidirectional devices. But TRIAC is a bidirectional device.
S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. As temperature increases the mobility of charge carriers decreases and this will decrease the conductivity by smaller values but at the same time there is increase in number of covalent bond broken due to increase in temperature. A large number of holes and electrons are created in equal number and this will increase the conductivity by greater margin. Hence, there is increase in net conductivity of semiconductor.
S8. Ans.(c)
Sol. An unused or disconnected input in a TTL gate acts as HIGH level because an open input results in a reverse biased emitter junction of the input transistor, just as a high level does .
S9. Ans.(c)
Sol. Medium wave broadcast is used for regional broadcast.
S10. Ans.(a)
Sol. In a uniform plane wave,
σ = 0
η = (|E|)/(|H|) = √(µ/ε)
where,
η is Intrinsic Impedance.
