36) Solution: During the positive half-cycle of input (Vi > 0) diode D1 branch : diode D1 will be
forward-biased and conduct only when the voltage at its cathode. The cathode is connected to
a +12 V source.
So, D1 conducts when Vo > 12V. When D1 conducts, it acts like a short circuit, clamping the
output voltage Vo to +12V.
For any input voltage that would cause Vo to exceed +12V, the output will be limited to +12V.
Diode D2 branch: Diode D2 will be forward-biased only when the voltage at its anode (6V) is
greater than the voltage at its cathode (Vo).
So, D2 conducts when –6V > Vo. During the positive half-cycle, Vo is always positive. The
condition –6V > Vo can never be met.
Therefore, D2 remains reverse-biased (an open circuit) through out the entire positive half-
cycle.
Conclusion for positive cycle: The output voltage follows the input until it reaches +12V, at
which point it gets clipped.
During the negative half-cycle of input (Vi < 0)
* diode D1 branch : The condition for D1 conduct is Vo > 12 V.
* During the negative half-cycle, Vo is negative, so this condition is never met.
* Therefore, D1 remains reverse-biased (an open circuit) throughout the entire negative half-
cycle.
* Diode D2 branch: Diode D2 will be forward-biased when the voltage at its anode (–6V) is
greater than the voltage at its cathode (Vo).
* So, D2 conducts when –6V > Vo.
* This means that whenever the output voltage tries to become more negative than –6V, diode
D2 will turn on.
* When D2 conducts, it acts like a short circuit, clamping the output voltage Vo to –6V.
Conclusion for negative cycle : The output voltage follows the input until it reaches –6V, at
which point it gets clipped.
The circuit clips the sinusoidal waveform as follows:
The positive peak is clipped at +12V.
The negative peak is clipped at –6V.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 1

The ratio of their potential differences and power they consume depends entirely on their
individual resistances.
We first find the resistance ratio using their rated voltages and then apply Ohm's Law and the

Calculation:
1. Identify that resistance R is proportional to the square of rated voltage (V2) when power
resistance ratio: .
5. This confirms statement (b) is correct.

A. Pair (1): Ethyl alcohol (CH3CH2OH) contains the CH3CH(OH)- group and gives a yellow CHI3
precipitate with I2 + Base (positive iodoform test). Methyl alcohol (CH3OH) lacks this group
and does not react. (Correct)
B. Pair (2): Acetaldehyde (CH3CHO) Fehling's solution whereas aromatic benzaldehyde
(C6H5CHO) does not. (Correct)
C. Pair (3): Carboxylic acids react with NaHCO3 releasing CO2 gas. Phenol is too weakly acidic to
show this reaction. (Correct)
D. Pair (4): Propane-1-amine and propane-2-amine. Hinsberg's reagent distinguishes different
classes of amines (1°, 2°, and 3°)
Since both are primary (1°) amines, they undergo identical reactions, making this the Wrongly

Trachea: Cilia in the trachea help move mucus and trapped particles up and out of the
respiratory tract.
Let's look at why the other options are incorrect:
1. Macrophages and leucocytes: These cells use amoeboid movement, not ciliary movement.
2. Fallopian tube and leucocytes: While the fallopian tube has cilia, leucocytes use amoeboid
movement.

reasons for biodiversity conservation. → (i)
(c) Main cause for biodiversity loss → Habitat destruction is the primary cause. →(ii)
(d) Hotspots → Defined by high endemism and high habitat loss. → (iii)
correct Match:
(a–vi), (b–i), (c–ii), (d–iii)
