28. Q2: A pnp transistor with its base connected to a voltage source, the V source is connected to a +10V
source. The emitter of the transistor is connected to a resistance, and then to the same +10V source.
The collector side is connected to a capacitor, which is not charged at t=0-. Given the graph of Vsource =
10 V stepping up at t = 0 to further, draw the graph of Vout. Vout is between the point of collector and
capacitor.

ANS: Vout should be constantly -10V until t=0, and will hit V=0 V linearly from V=-10 V after t=0.

Hi, Can you explain why it linearly increases? Are you assuming that Collector is tied to -10V? The pnp
transistor is completely cutoff for the given biasing. The only way the capacitor is going to charge is
through leakage currents. It is very slow and takes a lot of time. Please advise me if my analysis is
correct.

29. If a conveyor motor trips out, how do you diagnose it?

You uncouple it and see if it spins freely unloaded. This only is valid for small, accessible motors, the real
answer is you test the motor with a Baker analyzer and look for your standard motor defects: turn to
turn shorts, open circuits, and ground faults.

30. Draw the circuit for an active low-pass filter.

resistor going into V- on a op amp, V+ to GND, and a resistor and cap in parallel from output to V-.

31. Arcing is bad for an electrical system, to deal with it we need to characterize it first. How would you
measure the Electrical Characteristics of an Arc?

From what I know, the potential of the arc is directly proportional to the distance that it travels. I believe
it's on the order of 1 inch per 1000 volts.
