A finite state machine (FSM) is implemented using the D flip-flops A and B and logic gates, as shown in the figure below. The four possible states of the FSM are Q_A Q_B = 00, 01, 10, and 11.

Assume that X_IN is held at a logic level throughout the operation of the FSM. When the FSM is initialized to the state Q_A Q_B = 100 and clocked, after a few clock cycles, it starts cycling through

The voltage of an electromagnetic wave propagating in a coaxial cable with uniform characteristic impedance is $$V(l) = {e^{ - \gamma l\, + \,j\,\omega \,t}}$$ Volts, where $$l$$ is the distance along the length of the cable in metres, $$\gamma = (0.1\, + \,j40)\,\,{m^{ - 1}}$$ is the complex propagation constant, and $$\omega = \,2\,\pi \,\, \times \,\,{10^9}$$ rad/s is the angular frequency. The absolute value of the attenuation in the cable in dB/metre is ___________________.

The expression for an electric field in free space is $$E = {E_0}\left( {\widehat x + \widehat y + j2\widehat z} \right){e^{ - j\left( {\omega t - kx + ky} \right)}},$$ where $$x,{\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} y,{\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} {\mkern 1mu} z\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ represent the spatial coordinates, $$t$$ represents time, and $$\omega ,\,\,k$$ are contants. This electric field

A half wavelength dipole is kept in the x-y plane and oriented along $${45^ \circ }$$ from the x-axis. Determine the direction of null in the radiation pattern for $$0 \le \phi \le \pi $$. Here the angle $$\theta \left( {0 \le \theta \le \pi } \right)$$ is measured from the z-axis, and the angle $$\phi \left( {0 \le \phi \le 2\pi } \right)$$ is measured from the x-axis in the x-y plane.
