Expert Solution
Step 1

When both the inputs v1 and v2 are zero, transistors Q1 and Q2 are OFF, but Q3 is ON, as the base is not grounded.

Hence, v01 is zero, as it is directly grounded through Q3.

Step 2

When v1 is ON and v2 is OFF, Q1 is ON, Q2 is OFF, and Q3 is OFF.

Hence, v01 is High as it is not grounded.

Step 3

When v1 is OFF and v2 is ON, Q1 is OFF, Q2 is ON, and Q3 is OFF as its base is shorted with ground through Q2.

Hence, v01 is High as it is not grounded.
