Consider the buck-boost converter shown. Switch $Q$ is operating at 25 kHz and 0.75 duty-cycle. Assume diode and switch to be ideal. Under steady-state condition, the average current flowing through the inductor is $\_\_\_\_$ A.

Two generators have cost functions $F_1$ and $F_2$. Their incremental-cost characteristics are
$$ \frac{d F_1}{d P_1}=40+0.2 P_1 \text { and } \frac{d F_2}{d P_2}=32+0.4 P_2 $$
They need to deliver a combined load of 260 MW . Ignoring the network losses, for economic operation, the generations $P_1$ and $P_2$ (in MW) are
A 3-bus network is shown. Consider generators as ideal voltage sources. If rows 1,2 and 3 of the $Y_{h s}$ matrix correspond to bus 1,2 and 3 respectively, then $Y_{h s}$ of the network is

In the figure shown, self-impedances of the two transmission lines are $1.5 j \mathrm{pu}$ each and $Z_m=0.5 j \mathrm{pu}$ is the mutual impedance. Bus voltages shown in the figure are in pu. Given that $\delta>0$, the maximum steady state real power that can be transferred in pu from bus- 1 to bus- 2 is
