1. Impedance is a complex quantity having the real part as _______ and the imaginary part as ______
A. resistance, resistance
B. resistance, reactance
C. reactance, resistance
D. reactance, reactance

Answer: B
Clarification: Almost all electric circuits offer impedance to the flow of current. Impedance is a complex quantity having the real part as resistance and the imaginary part as reactance.

2. The voltage function v(t) in the circuit shown below is?

A. v(t) = V_m e^-tjω
B. v(t) = V_me^tjω
C. v(t) = e^tjω
D. v(t) = e^-tjω

Answer: B
Clarification: The voltage function v(t) in the circuit is a complex function and is given by v(t) = V_m e^tjω=Vm(cosωt+jsinωt).

3. The current i(t) in the circuit shown below is?

A. i(t)=(V_m/(R-jωL))e^tjω
B. i(t)=(V_m(R+jωL)) e^tjω
C. i(t)=(V_m(R-jωL)) e^tjω
D. i(t)=(V_m/(R+jωL)) e^tjω
