DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING

ACADEMIC YEAR 2024-25 (EVEN SEMESTER)


GED1202 -Basic Electrical and Electronics Engineering

PART – A
1. Define Ohm’s Law
At constant temperature, the potential difference across any two terminals in the electric circuit
is directly proportional to the current flowing through those two terminals.
VαI
V= IR
where, R  Resistance (proportionality constant)

2. State the limitations of Ohm’s Law.

a. It does not apply to all non metallic conductors


b. It also does not apply to non linear devices such as zener diode, vacuumtubes etc.
c. It is true for metal conductors at constant temperature. If the temperaturechanges the
law is not applicable.

3. What are Active elements and Passive elements?

The elements which can deliver energy are called Active elements.
Example: Voltage and current sources
The elements which can consume energy either by absorbing or storing are called
Passive elements.
Example: Resistor, inductor and capacitors.

4. What are bilateral and unilateral elements?

In Bilateral element, the voltage-current relation is same for current flowing in either
direction.
Example: Resistor, inductor and capacitors.
In Unilateral element, the voltage-current relation is not same for current flowing in either
direction.
Example: Diode, Transistor.

5. State Kirchhoff’s Laws.


Kirchoff’s current law states that in a node, sum of entering current is equal of sum of leaving
current. (Or)
The algebraic sum of the current meeting at a junction is equal to zero.
∑I = 0.
Kirchoff’s voltage law states that “The algebraic sum of the voltages around any closed path is
zero”.
∑v = 0.

6. Summarize the classifications of Circuit elements.

The classification of circuit elements are


 Active Elements
 Passive elements
 Lumped and distributed elements
 Bilateral and unilateral elements
 Linear and non linear elements

7. Calculate the equivalent current source for a voltage source of 10V in series with a 60Ω
resistance.

The equivalent current source for a voltage source of 10V in series with a 60Ω resistance
is

I = V/R = 10/60 = 0.166 A.


8. Define Series and Parallel connection.

If the resistors are connected end to end, the combination is said to be series.
If one end of all the resistors are joined to a common point and another ends are joined to a
common point, the combination is said to be parallel combination between two points.

9. What are Dependent and independent sources?


The electrical energy supplied by a dependent source depends on another source of
electrical energy.
The electrical energy supplied by an independent source does not depend on another
electrical energy. They convert energy in some form to electrical energy.

10. Define ideal voltage source.


By definition, an ideal voltage source is a two-terminal element with the property that the
voltage across the terminals is specified at every instant in time. This voltage does not depend on
the current through the source. That is, any current in any direction could possibly flow through
the source.

11. What are Linear and non linear elements?


In Linear element, the element which satisfies the current-voltage relationship is called
Linear.
Example: Resistor.
In Non linear element, the element which does not satisfy the current-voltage relationship
is called non Linear.
Example: Diode, Transistor.
