Tutorial Chapter 2 - Ans

1. This document contains practice questions and answers on signal harmonics, frequency spectra, and linear vs nonlinear systems. 2. Questions calculate harmonic distortion percentages, identify harmonic frequencies for various input signals, and determine harmonic amplitudes for square waves. 3. Graphs show example frequency spectra for harmonic signals and the output of a nonlinear amplifier. 4. Subjective questions define terms like frequency spectrum, bandwidth, linear summing, nonlinear mixing, and ask about harmonic vs. intermodulation distortion and time vs. frequency domain instruments.
