When the Newton-Raphson method is applied to solve the equation $$\,\,f\left( x \right) = {x^3} + 2x - 1 = 0,\,\,$$ the solution at the end of the first iteration with the initial value as $${x_0} = 1.2$$ is

Thyristor $$T$$ in the figure below is initially off and is triggered with a single pulse of width $$10\mu s.$$ It is given that $$L = \left( {{{100} \over \pi }} \right)\mu H$$ and $$C = \left( {{{100} \over \pi }} \right)\mu F.$$ Assuming latching and holding currents of the thyristor are both zero and the initial charge on $$C$$ is zero, $$T$$ conducts for

In the figure shown below, the chopper feeds a resistive load from a battery source. $$MOSFET$$ $$Q$$ is switched at $$250$$ $$kHz,$$ with a duty ratio of $$0.4.$$ All elements of the circuit are assumed to be ideal.

The average source current in Amps in steady-state is
