Question

Consider the impedance function Z(s)=(s^2+6s+8)/(s^2+3s). Find the value of R1 after performing the second Cauer form.

(a) 10

(b) 1

(c) 100

(d) 1000

This question was posed to me in a job interview.

Enquiry is from Synthesis of R-C Network by Cauer Method in chapter Elements of Realizability and Synthesis of One-Port Networks of Network Theory

Answer 1

Right option is (a) 10

Best explanation: The final quotient is 1/10. So the value of R1 is 1/1/10.So the value of R1 is 10Ω.

R1 = 10Ω.
