8 - Question
The ten switches A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,N,M are placed in the given circuit (all are open at given time). If you close one switch you need to pay 1 unit cost. What is the cost you need to pay to glow this Lamp?
a) 1 unit
b) 2 units
c) 3 units
d) 4 units
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: This can be achieved by turning one of switches N or M on.
9 - Question
If in a for it to be complete it is necessary for switch A to be closed and either of switch B or C to be closed, then which can be true?
a) Switch A should in parallel with B and C is series to them
b) Switch A should be in series with a parallel circuit of B and C
c) All of the mentioned
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer
Answer: b
Explanation: Switch A is in series and since there is ‘or’ between B and C therefore they must be in parallel.
10 - Question
The given circuit can work if the switches P and Q be ___________
a) P: True, Q: False
b) P: True, Q: True
c) P: False, Q: False
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer
Answer: d
Explanation: If Q is false, then the circuit will be complete irrespective of the value of P. Also, if P is true and Q is also true, then also the circuit will be complete. Hence, all the choices are correct.
