SC Engineeri G: Bool N

This document is the final examination paper for the course ELEC2134 Circuits and Signals at the University of New South Wales. It contains 4 questions worth a total of 100 marks. Question 1 has three parts related to writing node and mesh equations for circuits in matrix form and calculating the capacitance required to increase a load's power factor. Question 2 has three parts about calculating maximum power transfer, drawing a Norton equivalent circuit, and finding a time domain voltage. Question 3 involves determining the Laplace transform of a function and finding a voltage using Laplace transforms. Question 4 contains the Laplace transform tables and has three parts about taking Laplace transforms and determining a state variable model.
