In a digital combinational circuit with $$4$$ inputs $$(A, B, C, D),$$ it is required to obtain an output of logical $$1$$ only for the input combination

$$(A = 1; B = C = D = 0).$$ It is known that the following combinations of input are forbidden:

$$ABCD = 1010, 1011, 1100, 1101, 1110, 1111$$
Evaluate the logical expression for the output and realize the same with two input $$NAND$$ gates. Assume that complements of inputs are not available.

A circuit consisting of a single resistor $$R$$ and an inductor $$L$$ in series is driven by a $$25$$ $$V$$ $$rms,$$ $$50$$ $$Hz$$ sinusoidal voltage source. A capacitor is to be placed in parallel with the source to improve the power factor. Given that the average power dissipated in the $$R$$ is $$100$$ $$W$$ and that the reactive power delivered to the $$L$$ is $$75$$ $$VAR,$$ what value of $$C$$ will yield a $$0.9$$ $$p.f.$$ lagging as seen by the source?
