Activity 3: A sorting machine has three sensors, an inductive sensor, a red colour sensor, and a blue sensor. The inductive sensor has one output 'A' defining two levels: '1' if the test material is a metallic, and '0' otherwise. The red colour sensor has one output 'B' defining two levels: '1' if the test material has a red colour, and '0' otherwise. The blue colour sensor has one output 'C' defining two levels: '1' if the test material has a blue colour, and '0' otherwise. The combination of all outputs is used by the sorting machine to decide if a solenoid actuator should be activated ("D=1') if the tested material is not metallic and has a red or blue or mix of both green and blue colours (Purple). Otherwise, the solenoid actuator should be deactivated ('D=0'). (3-A) Is this an analogue or digital electronic problem? Explain the difference. (3-B) What is the benefit of using digital circuits for the abovementioned scenario? Explain. (3-C) Apply your knowledge of Boolean logic to form the truth table.

2. A bank of nickel-cadmium cells is used as the emergency lighting supply for a hospital. There are 100 cells connected in series and each has an A-hr rating of 120 A-hr. The bank has to be replaced, and the manufacturer is no longer supplying nickel-cadmium cells. It is decided to replace the cells with lead-acid cells. How many lead-acid cells will be required if each has an A-hr rating of 60 A-hr, and how should they be connected?
