The output Y for the given inputs A and B to the circuit is:

The output YY for the given inputs AA and BB to the circuit is:
The output Y for the given inputs A and B to the circuit is:

Options

  1. AA clock with only dot markings 3,6,9 and 12 positions has been kept upside down in front of a mirror. A person reads
  2. BA clock with only dot markings 3,6,9 and 12 positions has been kept upside down in front of a mirror. A person reads
  3. CA clock with only dot markings 3,6,9 and 12 positions has been kept upside down in front of a mirror. A person reads
  4. DA clock with only dot markings 3,6,9 and 12 positions has been kept upside down in front of a mirror. A person reads

Correct answer

B. A clock with only dot markings 3,6,9 and 12 positions has been kept upside down in front of a mirror. A person reads

Step-by-step solution

From the circuit:
Top AND gate output: A⋅BA \cdot B
Bottom AND gate output: Aˉ⋅B\bar{A} \cdot B (the AA input passes through a NOT gate)
The OR gate combines these:
Y=(A⋅B)+(Aˉ⋅B)Y = (A \cdot B) + (\bar{A} \cdot B)

Factoring out BB:
Y=B⋅(A+Aˉ)Y = B \cdot (A + \bar{A})

Using A+Aˉ=1A + \bar{A} = 1:
Y=B⋅1=BY = B \cdot 1 = B

So YY is independent of AA and follows BB exactly.

Reading the input waveform of BB:
From t=0t = 0 to t=1 st = 1\text{ s}: B=1B = 1
From t=1t = 1 to t=2 st = 2\text{ s}: B=1B = 1
From t=2t = 2 to t=3 st = 3\text{ s}: B=0B = 0

Hence, YY is 11 from 00 to 2 s2\text{ s} and 00 from 22 to 3 s3\text{ s}.

This matches the waveform shown in option (2)(2).

Hence, the correct option is (2)(2).
