Q2.
For the two-port network shown below, the short-circuit admittance parameter matrix is

Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Given circuit is as shown below

By writing node equation at input port

By writing node equation at output port

From (1) and (2), we have admittance matrix


Q3.
For the asymptotic Bode magnitude plot shown below, the system transfer function can be

Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Initial slope is zero, so K = 1
At corner frequency 𝜔1 = 0.5 rad/ sec, slope increases by +20 dB/decade, so there is a zero in the transfer function at 𝜔1
At corner frequency 𝜔2 = 10 rad/ sec, slope decreases by -20 dB/decade and becomes zero, so there is a pole in transfer function at 𝜔2
Transfer function

Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Q8.
In the circuit shown, the switch S is open for a long time and is closed at t = 0. The current i (t) for t  0+is

Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:


When the switch S is open for a long time before t < 0, the circuit is

At t = 0, inductor current does not change simultaneously, So the circuit is

Current is resistor (AB)
i(0) = 0.75/2 = 0.375 A
Similarly for steady state the circuit is as shown below


B = 0.375 - 0.5 =- 0.125


Q9. The transfer function of a discrete time LTI system is given by

Consider the following statements:
S1: The system is stable and causal for ROC: |z| > 1/2
S2: The system is stable but not causal for ROC: |z| < 1/4
S3: The system is neither stable nor causal for ROC: 1/4 < |z| < 1/2
Which one of the following statements is valid ?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:


By partial fraction H(z) can be written as

For ROC : |z| > 1/2

Thus system is causal. Since ROC of H(z) includes unit circle, so it is stable also. Hence S1 is True
For ROC : |z| < 1/4

System is not causal. ROC of H(z) does not include unity circle, so it is not stable and S3 is True

Q10. The current I in the circuit shown is
