1Ω resistance connected across Port 2. When 3 V is applied to Port 1, what will be the current
(in Ampere) through a 2Ω resistance connected across Port 2? (Ans. 0.545 A)
(Hint: Use ABCD parameters first equation to obtain I2. See A and B are directly can be obtained
by given information. )

8. The short-circuit admittance matrix of a two-port network is
𝟎 𝟎. 𝟓
[ ]
−𝟎. 𝟓 𝟎
The two-port network is
(a) Non -reciprocal and passive (b) Non-reciprocal and active
(c) Reciprocal and passive (d) Reciprocal and active
Answer: (b).
Since, 𝑦12 ≠ 𝑦21 so the network is nonreciprocal. And active networks are nonreciprocal.
