Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The three principal parts of an atom and the charge that each one carries.

Answer to Problem 1RQ

The three principal parts of an atom are the proton, the electron and the neutron.

A proton carries a positive charge.

An electron carries a negative charge.

A neutron does not carry any charge.

Explanation of Solution

Description:

The basic building block of the universe is the Atom.

Any substance that has mass and occupies space is called matter and all matter is made from a combination of atoms.

An atom is made of three principal parts, they are: Proton, Electron and Neutron.

A proton carries a positive charge.

An electron carries a negative charge.

A neutron does not carry any charge.

Conclusion:

The three principal parts of an atom and the charge that each one carries respectively have been explained.

Question 1. Design a 4-bit combinational circuit for a 2’s complementer. The circuit generates at the output the 2’s complement of the input binary numbers.a) Complete the following truth table. A, B, C, D indicate the input binary number to be complement- ed using 2’s complement and W, X, Y, Z represent the output 2’s complement of the input binary number. The variable D is the least significant bit and A is the most significant bit of the binary number.b) Simplify the Boolean function W in its Sum-of-Products (SOP) form using a K-Map (you do not have to show the circuit) and provide its simplified Boolean expression.c) Show that the Boolean function W can be realized using exclusive-OR (XOR) gates and OR gates draw its corresponding logic circuit.d) Simplify the Boolean function Z in its Product-of-Sums (POS) form using a K-Map, provide its simplified Boolean expression and draw its corresponding logic circuit.
