    The given circuit:

    Applying KVL in the input side, we get
    V1 = 2I1 + I1.1 + (I1 + I2).1
    or
    V1 = 4I1 + I2 …. . . .(i)
    Again applying KVL in the output side, we get
    V2 = I2.1 + (I1 + I2).1
    or
    V2 = I1 + 2I2. . . . …(ii)
    From equation (i) and (ii):
    Z11 = 4Ω, Z12 = 1Ω
    Z21 = 1Ω, Z22 = 2Ω
    For the network to be reciprocal
    Z12 = Z21 (Here Z11 = Z12 = 1Ω)
    So, network is reciprocal
    and
    Z11 = 4Ω, Z22 = 2Ω
    Therefore, statements 1 and 3 are correct.
    Hence alternative (A) is the correct choice.

  1. What is the value of R required for maximum power transfer in the network shown above?










  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    The given network:

    Let R = RL.
    The value of R required for maximum power transfer in network is equivalent to net resistance as seen from the open load terminal (i.e. Thevenin’s resistance, Rth)

    From above figure,
    Rth = [5 || 20] + 4Ω = 4Ω + 4Ω = 8Ω
    Hence alternative (C) is the correct choice

    The given network

    We know that

    h12 =
    V1
    		/I1 = 0
    V2

    The given network can be modified as:

    Applying KCL at node A
    VA- V2
    		+
    VA
    		+
    VA- V1
    		= 0
    484

    V1
    844

    or
    5
    		VA = V2 + V1 …. . . . . . (i)
    2

    Again by applying potential divider rule
    V1 = V1 ×
    4
    		 =
    VA
    22

    VA = 2V1
    Now

    or
    4 V1 = V2
    or
    V1
    		 =
    1
    		 = h12 = 0·250Ω
    V24

    Hence alternative (C) is the correct choice.

    Current I1 due to 30V source only:

    I1 =
    4 × 30
    		= 10A (A2 to A1)
    12

    Current I2 due to 6V source is:

    I2 =
    2 × 6
    		= 1A (A2 to A1)
    12

    Total current, I = I1 + I2 = 10 + 1 = 11A
    Hence alternative (D) is the correct choice.

    Correct Option: D

    Current I1 due to 30V source only:

    I1 =
    4 × 30
    		= 10A (A2 to A1)
    12

    Current I2 due to 6V source is:

    I2 =
    2 × 6
    		= 1A (A2 to A1)
    12

    Total current, I = I1 + I2 = 10 + 1 = 11A
    Hence alternative (D) is the correct choice.
