For the circuit shown in the figure, the Thevenin equivalent voltage (in Volts) across terminals a-b is _____.

Let $$\widetilde x\left[ n \right]\, = \,1 + \cos \left[ {{{\pi n} \over 8}} \right]$$ be a periodic signal with period 16. Its DFS coefficients are defined by
$${a_k}$$ = $${1 \over {16}}\sum\limits_{n = 0}^{15} {\widetilde x} \left[ n \right]\exp \left( { - j{\pi \over 8}kn} \right)$$ for all k. The value of the coeffcients $${a_{31}}$$ is _____________________.

A realization of a stable discrete time system is shown in the figure. If the system is excited by a unit step sequence input x[n ] , the response y[ n] is

Suppose x $$\left[ n \right]$$ is an absolutely summable discrete-time signal. Its z-transform is a rational function with two poles and two zeroes. The poles are at z = ± 2j. Which one of the following statements is TRUE for the signal x=$$\left[ n \right]$$ ?
