25. Find the voltage of V1 and V2 using Nodal Analysis.
A. 87.23V, 29.23V
B. 23.32V, 46.45V
C. 64.28V, 16.42V
D. 56.32V, 78, 87V
Answer: C
The nodal equations are:
0.3V1 − 0.2V2 = 16
− V1 + 3V2 = − 15
Solving these equations simultaneously, we get
V1 = 64.28V and V2 = 16.42V.
26. Nodal analysis is generally used to determine_______
A. Voltage
B. Current
C. Resistance
D. Power
Answer: A
The nodal analysis uses Kirchhoff’s Current Law to find all the node voltages. Hence it is a method used to determine the voltage.
27. If there are 10 nodes in a circuit, how many equations do we get?
A. 10
B. 9
C. 8
D. 7
Answer: B
One node is taken as a reference node so, the number of equations we get is always one less than the number of nodes in the circuit, hence for 10 nodes we get 9 equations.
28. Nodal analysis can be applied for________
A. Planar networks
B. Non-planar networks
C. Both planar and non-planar networks
D. Neither planar nor non-planar networks
Answer: C
Nodal analysis can be applied for both planar and non-planar networks since each node, whether it is planar or non-planar, can be assigned a voltage.
29. How many nodes are taken as reference nodes in a nodal analysis?
A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4
Answer: A
In the nodal analysis, one node is treated as the reference node and the voltage at that point is taken as 0.
