Calculate the output ripple frequency of a center-tapped full-wave rectifier when the input sine wave is given as 200 sin 80πt.

 The open-loop gain of an amplifier is 250. If negative feedback with β = 0.1 is used, the closed-loop gain will be ___________ (rounded off to 2 decimal places)

In general, the linear region of a JFET is defined by

The output of a transmitter is given by 400[1 + 0.4sin(6280t)]sin(3.14x10⁷t). This voltage is fed to an antenna of resistance 500 Ω. Determine the carrier power.

The longest wavelength that can be absorbed by silicon, which has the bandgap of 1.12 eV, is 1.11 micro m. If the longest wavelength that can be absorbed by another material is 0.87 micro m, then the bandgap of this material is

An amplifier is assumed to have a single-pole high-frequency transfer function. The rise time of the output response to a step function input is 35 ns. The upper 3 dB frequency for the amplifier to a sinusoidal input is approximately:
