3.

What is the function of an AND gate?

a)

The function of an AND gate is to output false only when all inputs are false.

b)

The function of an AND gate is to output true if at least one input is true.

c)

The function of an AND gate is to output true only when all inputs are true.

d)

The function of an AND gate is to output true when none of the inputs are true.

4.

How does an OR gate operate?

a)

An OR gate outputs false if at least one input is true.

b)

An OR gate requires all inputs to be true to output true.

c)

An OR gate outputs true if at least one input is true.

d)

An OR gate outputs true only if both inputs are true.

5.

What is the output of a NAND gate when both inputs are true?

a)

false

high

c)

true

d)

undefined

6.

Explain the function of a NOT gate.

a)

The function of a NOT gate is to invert the input signal.

b)

The NOT gate outputs the same signal as the input.

c)

The NOT gate amplifies the input signal.

d)

The NOT gate combines multiple input signals.

7.

What is the difference between an AND gate and an OR gate?

a)

An AND gate requires all inputs to be true for a true output, whereas an OR gate requires only one input to be true for a true output.

b)

An AND gate requires no inputs to be true for a true output, while an OR gate requires all inputs to be true.

c)

An AND gate can have multiple true outputs, whereas an OR gate can only have one true output.

d)
