Questions and Answers

What is the main characteristic of ideal filters in terms of output voltage?

  • Decreases gradually at the cut-off frequency
  • Increases sharply at the cut-off frequency
  • Stops completely at the cut-off frequency (correct)
  • Has no specific pattern at the cut-off frequency

Why are highly selective and steep response curves impossible to achieve in practical filters?

  • The use of techniques that limit steepness
  • Design limitations and practical constraints (correct)
  • Because of gradual attenuation with frequency
  • Due to the use of special components

At what frequencies does the output voltage decrease gradually in a low-pass filter?

  • At frequencies above the cut-off frequency (correct)
  • At a constant rate with frequency
  • At high frequencies after the cut-off
  • At low frequencies before the cut-off
