  1. (d)

VL = L dI                L/dt, IC = C dVC/dt

VC = 3VL  IC = 3LC d2il/dt = – 9.6 sin 4t A

  1. (d)

VL = L dIL/dt

for 2 < t < 4,

VL = (0.05) (-100 – 0/2) = – 2.5 V

For 4 < t < 8,

VL = (0.05) (100 + 100/4) = 2.5 V

For 8 < t < 10.

VL = (0.05) (0 – 100/2) = – 2.5 V

  1. (d)

in the circuit REQ is given by

REQ = VS/IS

VS = (IS + VX) (2 + 1) = 3IS + 3VX …………(1)

Current in 2 resistor

VX/2 = IS + VX

-VX/2 = IS, VX = – 2I ……………….(2)

From eq. (1) and (2), we get

VS = 3IS + 3(-2IS)

VS = 3IS – 6IS, VS = – 3IS

REQ = VS/IS = 3

Alternate Method

in steady stete, capacitor is open-circuited while at t = 0 or initial capacitor is short-circuited.

[capacitor is initially uncharged]

volt = final value – (final-initial) e-t/t

= A – (A – B) e-t/t = 8 – (8 – 0) e-t/0.004

r0(t) = 8 (1 – e-t/0.004) V

  1. (b)

in L1 current enters in undotted terminal terminal whereas in L3 current enters in dotted terminal.

hence, mutual inductance due to L1 and L3 is – 2 x j10. in L2 current enters in dotted terminal and also in L3 current enters in dotted terminal.

Hence, mutual inductance due to L2 and L3 is + 2 x j10.

impedance Z = j5 + j2 + j2 – j20 + j20 = j9

  1. (b)

let VOC be the open-circuit voltage and ISC short-circuit current

VTH = VOC

RTH = VOC/ISC

To calculate VOC

Let node as reference node.

applying KCL at node

VOC/5 + VOC – 10/5 = 1

2VOC /5 = 3

VOC = 15/2 V

To calcuate ISC

5 can be removed.

hence,  1A = ISC = – 10/5

ISC = 1 + 10/5 = 3A

RTH = VOC/ISC = 15/2 x 3 = 5/2 = 2.5

Voltage across R3 , i.e., VB  = 10 x R3/R4 + R3

R3 = 1.1 R4

VB = 10 x 1.1 x R4(1.1 + 1)R4 = 10 x 1.1/2.1 = 5.2380 V

Reading of ideal voltmeter = VA – VB = – 0.238 V

h11 = V1/I1|V2 = 0   = 10 = 10 [20 shorted]

h12 = V1/V2|I1 = 0  = 1[V1 = V2]

h21 = I2/I1|V2 = 0    =- 1[I1 = – I2]

h22 = I2/V2|I1 = 0   = 1/20 = 0.05

[h] = [10  1/ -1  0.05]

RC = 0.1 x 10-6 x 1 x 103

hence, steady state reached in 2 s.

the capacitor gets opne-circuited with voltage 3 V.

  1. (d)

V0 = 3 V

The voltage and current with Z-parameters as

V1 = Z11I1 + Z12I2

V2 = Z21I1 + Z22I2

Z11 = V1/I1|I2 = 0

As two similar circuits divide I, hence I = I1/2

V1 = I1/2 ZA + ZB

Z11 = ZA + ZN/2

Z12 = V1/I2|I1 = 0

I = I2/2

V1 = ZA I2/2 – ZB I2/2

Z12 = 1/2 [ZA – ZB]

Simiarly, Z21 = 1/2 [ZA – ZB]

Z22 = 1/2 [ZA + ZB]

Putting the values ZA and ZB,

[Z] = [1 + J  J-1/J – 1 1 + J]

u(t) = I(t) + L dI/dt + |I dt

u(t) = I(t) + L dI/dt + I dt

taking laplace transform,

1/s = I(s) + sI (s) – I(0+) + I(s)/s + V(0+)/s

1/s = I(s) + sI (s) – 1 + I(s)/s – 1/s

  1. (d)

before switch is closed, equivalent circuit is (t < 0)

IA = 10/2 = 5 A

Current IL(0) is

IL(0) = 10 – 3IA/5

= 10 – 3 x 5/5 = – 5/5 = – 1A

IL(0+) = IL(0) = – 1 A

For parallel resonant circuit

  1. (d)

for t < 0 equivalent circuit is

current IL(0) = 1/40 + 10 x 40 = 0.8 A

VC (0) = 0

At t = 0+, IL and VC does not change abruptly and equivalent circuit is

IL(0+) = IL(0) = 0.8 A

VC(0+) = VC(0) = 0

In the circuit,

-1 = VR(0+)/40 = VR(0+)/10 = 5/40 VR(0+)

VR (0+) = – 8 V

dVR(t)/dt = d/dt [VR(t) = d/dt [10 x IR(t)]

= d/dt [10 x (-40 – VC(t)/50]

= -0.2 dVC (t)/dt = 0.2IC(t)/C

IC(0+) = -8/10 – IL (0+)

So, VR(0+)/dt = 0.2IC(0+)/C

dVR(0+)/dt = -0.2 x -1.6/1 x 10-3 = 320 V/s

  1. (a)

we can obtain thevenin equivalent across L and C as following (for t > 0)

writing node equation,

IS = VS – 12/1 x 103 + VS KV1/1 x 103

V1 = 12 – VS

So, IS 1 x 103 = VS – 12 + VS – K (12 – VS)

1000IS = (2 + K)VS – (1 + K) 12

VS = (1000/2 + K)IS + (1 + K)/(2 + K) 12

For thevenin equivalent,

VS = RTHIS + VTH

So, RTH = 1000/2 + K

The equivalent circuit is

for critically damped response,

R2C = 4L

(1000/2 + K)2 x 0.1 x 10-6 = 4 x 10-3

25 = (2 + k)2, 2 + k = 5  k = 3

  1. (a)

for t > 0 the circuit is sourcefree.

u(t) = 0, t < 0

IL(0) = 0, VC(0) = 0

At t = 0, the circuit is

u(t) = 1, t < 0

IL and VC cannot change instantaneously.

IL = (0+) = IL (0) = 0

VC(0+) = VC(0) = 0

VA = (0+) = 4 x 10 = 40 v

IC(0+) = VA(0+) = 4 mA

IC(0+) = VA(0+) – 5000IC
