Answer:
The correct usage is a NOR gate which is indicated in the explanation.
Explanation:
The truth table for the given two signals, namely
p=unplugged signal
q=low battery signal
can form a truth table of following form
Here p has 2 states
1 if the power supply is connected
0 otherwise
Similarly q has 2 states
0 if the battery has reached almost zero state
1 otherwise
As the condition for the Hibernate Signal is given as to only activate when the battery is low and the power supply is not connected. This indicate that the value of Hibernate signal should be 1 when both p and q are 0.
Using this condition, the truth table is formed as
unplugged signal | low battery signal | Hibernate Signal
0 | 0 | 1
0 | 1 | 0
1 | 0 | 0
1 | 1 | 0
Now the truth table of NOR is given as
a | b | a or b | ~(a or b)
0 | 0 | 0 | 1
0 | 1 | 1 | 0
1 | 0 | 1 | 0
1 | 1 | 1 | 0
This indicates that the both truth tables are same thus the NOR gate is to be used for this purpose.
I would recommend A. Quickly on the left and move ahead of it because you should always pass on the left and seeing as it is a large truck, you would want to get ahead of it ASAP.
I'm going have to go with with 1.b and 2.d hope this helps and I don't need help right now.
