Expert Solution
Step 1: Concept

An astable multivibrator, also known as a free-running multivibrator, is a type of oscillator circuit that generates a continuous square wave without the need for external triggering. It consists of two amplifying stages (usually implemented using transistors or op-amps) with a timing network of resistors and capacitors.

Given:

T=35 ms; D=60% i.e. 0.6; C=10 micro-farad;
