Answer the following queries using Relational algebra

operators:

ii. Display the ename and the dname in which the
 employee is working.
iii. Find the enames of the employees who worked in the
year 2000.

v. Display the ename and the dname in which the

Q.No:5 Draw the ER diagram for one university: CO2

There are multiple departments present in the university. Each

department has one unique did along with dname, location and
contact_no. Many employees (identified by unique eid along
with ename, doj, salary and contact(s)) working in the
departments; one employee can work in a single department.
Many students registered into different departments, one
student can register into one department only. We are
interested to keep unique roll, sname, mob_no, address (can be
decomposed into street, city & pin)) of each student. Each
department has many classrooms. Each classroom has a
roomno, capacity and floor; roomno is not sufficient for the
unique identification of the classroom, rather roomno along
with did will form the unique identifier. Employees are
managing the students. Faculty members (type of employees)
are teaching to students in different classrooms. The remaining
employees are engaged in official works.

Make necessary assumptions. Identify the primary and foreign

keys. Then convert the above ER diagram into relational
schemas.
Q.No:6 Emp (eid, ename, salary, age, doj) CO3
Dept (did, dname, budget, contact_no)
Work (eid, did, year)

Answer the following queries using relational calculus

expressions:
i. Find the enames of the employees working in all depts.
ii. Display the ename and the dname in which the

iii. Find the enames of the employees who worked in the
year 2000.
iv. Find the enames of the employees who worked in „CSE‟
 dept.
v. Find the enames of the employees who get salary of
minimum 1 lakh and joined before ‟01-Jan-2010‟.
