Question
Chapter 17, Problem 2FC
To determine
The combination of the given pulses that would produce a resultant pulse with highest peak and the deepest valley at any instant.
Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 2FC
The correct option is (a) 1 and 2.
Explanation of Solution
Out of the given four pulses, the combination of 1 and 2 will provide a resultant pulse with the highest peak and the deepest valley. This is because if we add pulse 1 and pulse 2, it will produce a resultant pulse that is 4 units high and 2 units deep. All the other combinations give a value that is less than this.
Conclusion:
Hence, the correct option is (a) 1 and 2.
