Note: This question paper contains two parts A and B. Part A is compulsory which carries 25 marks. Answer all questions in Part A. Part B consists of 5 Units. Answer any one full question from each unit.

PART A

1

Answer all questions.

25 marks
a

What is transient response of circuit?

2 marks

Answer

The transient response is the temporary behavior of a circuit that occurs between the time a switching action takes place and the time the circuit reaches a new steady-state condition. It represents the circuit's adjustment period when energy stored in inductors or capacitors changes.

b

What are initial conditions? Explain their significance.

3 marks

Answer

Initial conditions refer to the values of circuit variables, specifically the voltage across capacitors and current through inductors, at the exact instant of switching (t = 0+). Their significance lies in the fact that energy stored in reactive elements cannot change instantaneously, allowing us to determine the state of the circuit immediately after a disturbance, which is essential for solving differential equations governing the transient response.

c

What are symmetrical networks?
