Q:

Dust particles in the air of large industrial cities are removed by 

A) Sedimentation B) Electrophoresis
C) Tyndall effect D) Brownian movement
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Electrophoresis

Explanation:

Dust particles such as coal dust(smoke) are fine particle of a solid (carbon in the case of smoke) dispersed in air. They are colloidal systems and the particles are charged either positive or negative. In an applied electrical field, they are attracted towards the opposite electrodes. Movement of the particles towards the electrodes is known as 'electrophoresis'. Hence electrophoresis is applied to remove smoke within the chimeny itself without allowing it to escape into the air and cause nuisance.

Q:

What are the different Adder circuits you studied?

Answer

Adders are generally of five types:


1.Ripple Carry Adder:


The Ripple carry adder(RCA) consists of a building block named Half Adder(HA) which is cascaded to form a Full Adder(FA). These buildingblocks HAs and FAs are also the building blocks of all types of adders.The n full adders are cascaded to form n bit RCA.


The full adder has three input pins(input Ai,input Bi,carryin Ci) and two output pins(Sum and Ci+1).Its equations are:


Sum=Ai^Bi^Ci


Ci+1=Ai.Bi+Bi.Ci+Ai.Ci


 


2. Carry Lookahead Adder:


The Carry Lookahead Adder(CLA) reduces the delay as that in RCA. Let Gi=Ai.Bi, and Pi=Ai^Bi, then Ci+1=Gi+Pi.Ci.


The expressions for Sum and Ci+1 is then defined completely in terms of input pins rather wait for input carry to appear.


 


3. Carry Select Adder:


The carry select adder uses duplicate modules for each combination of input carry(i.e. 1 and 0).The multiplexers then select the appropriate sum and carry output according to the carry output of the preceding stages.


 


4. Carry Skip Adder:


The carry skip adder are as fast as carry lookahead adders which are the fastest adders but its spped decreases to about 20-30% if input operands are 64-bit or more. In these adders we divide the input bit stream into various blocks and make use of two observations:


-if each element of the two bit streams are unequal,i.e. Ai!=Bi than the carry input of the block is equal to the carry input.


-if each element of the two bit streams are equal,i.e. Ai=Bi than the carry input of the block is opposite of the carry input.


 


5. Carry Save Adder:


The carry save adder reduces the addition of three elements into addition of two elements,i.e. if you want sum of nine numbers it reduces it into sum of six numbers. In first step the sum of three numbers is calculated without bothering for the carry.During the second step only carry is calculated which is then added to the generated sum to give the required sum.

Q:

What are the various ways to measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign?

Answer

The main purpose in measuring the effectiveness of any advertising campaigns is to evaluate its effect on the sales and also brand recall factor. The mathematical equation for measuring the effectiveness of an advertising campaign is:


Advertising campaign effectiveness = Revenue + Return on investment (ROI)


There are various ways to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns:


         - Conducting a survey after the campaign ends


         - Proportionate increase in the sales of that particular product/service


         - More customers calling to a toll-free and prescribed lines


         - Redemption of coupons and vouchers


         - Increased footfalls in the store to purchase product/service


         - Increased click on the company’s website
