Explore more from Digital Electronics here. Learn now! Laws of Boolean Algebra Question 1 Detailed Solution The correct answer is option 2 and option 3. Concept: Boolean function: The variables used in Boolean Algebra only have one of two possible values, a logic “0” and a logic “1” but an expression can have an infinite number of variables all labeled individually to represent inputs to the expression. For example, variables A, 8, C, etc, give us a logical expression of A+B = C, but each variable can ONLY bea Oora. Explanation: The given expression is = x + yz the equivalent expression is, Option 1:x+z+xy =K4Z+Ky =x(1ty)}+z (142 4+1=x) =X +Zitis not equivalent x + yz. Option 2: (x+ y)(x +z) XS = (K+y)(K +2) SK HAZ tyK YZ ex(1+zty) +yz (1 +x=x41 =x) =x-+yz itis equivalent x + yz Option 3: x + xy+ yz =xtxytyz =x(1+y) +yz =x +Yz itis equivalent x + yz. Option 4: x + xz+ xy =KEKZ+XY =x(1#z4y) (-1+x=x+1=%) = xitis not equivalent x +yz. Hence the correct answer is option 2 and option 3. ea e India’s #1 Learning Platform ye AS elem Orel) Cle ele) pee Dreamers Download App Question 2: View this Question Online > Consider a Boolean gate (D) where the output Y is related to the inputs A and B as, Y=A+ B, where + denotes logical OR operation. The Boolean inputs ‘0’ and ‘1’ are also available separately. Using instances of only D gates and inputs ‘0’ and ‘1’,____ (select the correct option(s). . 1. NAND logic can be implemented 2. OR logic eanhot be implemented A... can be implemented 4, AND logic cannot be implemented Answer (Detailed Solution Below) Option : Laws of Boolean Algebra Question 2 Detailed Solution The correct answer is option 1 and option 3. Concept: The given functions, y=A4B" = (A'B)' f(A,B)= A+B! As 0 and1 are available. (0,8)= AtB'= {(A.B)= A+(B') = A+B= OR Gate, f(0,f(A,B}))=0 +(A+B)'= NOR Gate. f(A (A.B) =NAND Gate. {(0,f(4.B)) = 0+((A.B)')= AB= AND Gate. '= NOT Gate. With the combination of OR and NOT, NOR gate can be implemented. Since NOR gate Is universal logic gate, so all the functions can be implemented. Hence, we can implement NOT Gate we can also implement OR, AND, NOR and NAND Gate. Hence the correct answer is option 1 and option 3.
