3short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.

What are power-of-ten errors?
Show answer
Convert kΩ\text{k}\Omega to ohms and μF\mu\text{F} to farads before using T=1.1RCT = 1.1RC.
What is q1?
Show answer
A 555 monostable has R=47kΩR = 47\,\text{k}\Omega and C=100μFC = 100\,\mu\text{F}. Calculate the pulse duration. [3 marks]
What is q2?
Show answer
State how many output pulses a monostable produces for one trigger. [1 mark]
