The logic gate equivalent to the given circuit diagram is :
- OR
- NAND
- NOR
- AND
The Correct Option is B
Approach Solution - 1
The circuit diagram represents a NAND gate. Let’s analyze the behavior of the circuit:
- When both switches \( A \) and \( B \) are closed (ON state), the output is 0 (the bulb does not glow) because the current flows directly to the ground.
- In all other cases, the bulb glows, corresponding to an output of 1.
This behavior matches the truth table of a NAND gate:
\[ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \hline A & B & Y = \overline{A \cdot B} \\ \hline 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 0 \\ \hline \end{array} \]
Thus, the circuit corresponds to the logic of a NAND gate, with the output given by:
\[ Y = \overline{A \cdot B} \]
Approach Solution -2
The correct answer is (B) : NAND

An \( \alpha \) particle is scattered from an Au target at rest as shown in the figure. \( D_1 \) and \( D_2 \) are the detectors to detect the scattered \( \alpha \) particle at an angle \( \theta \) and along the beam direction, respectively, as shown. The signals from \( D_1 \) and \( D_2 \) are converted to logic signals and fed to logic gates. When a particle is detected, the signal is 1 and is 0 otherwise.

Concepts Used:
Logic Gates
AND Gate
It is the gate, where a circuit performs an AND operation. It has n number of input where (n >= 2) and one output.
OR Gate
It is the gate, where a circuit performs an OR operation. It has n number of input where (n >= 2) and one output.
NOT Gate
An inverter is also called NOT Gate. It has one input and one output where the input is A and the output is Y.
NAND Gate
A NAND operation is also called a NOT-AND operation. It has n number of input where (n >= 2) and one output.
NOR Gate
A NOR operation is also called a NOT-OR operation. It has n number of input where (n >= 2) and one output.
XOR Gate
XOR or Ex-OR gate is a specific type of gate that can be used in the half adder, full adder, and subtractor.
XNOR Gate
XNOR gate is a specific type of gate, which can be used in the half adder, full adder, and subtractor. The exclusive-NOR gate is flattened as an EX-NOR gate or sometimes as an X-NOR gate. It has n number of input (n >= 2) and one output.
