I noticed that EERM does not have a few of the more common op-amp circuits referenced in Figure 44.8 In particular, the following: - high-pass filter - band-pass filter - band-reject filter - differential amplifier You would think that they would at least include this in the Appendix, but...

I understand that v(t) = A+Be^(-t/tau) is the general form of a homogeneous linear 1st-order diffy-q solution for an RC circuit. Do I have the following information below correct? - natural response (zero input response) is parameter B, V(0) - forced response (zero state, steady state...

A "sleeper" topic I noticed is synchronous sequential logic (i.e. flip flops). It might just creep up unannounced! I noticed none of the sample breadth exams (Kaiser, NCEES, Camara, Kaplan, 6 min soln's) except for the Practice Problems had any single flip flop questions. It's like a minority...

What concept/principle are they trying to test in the question? Is it that the delta V_line = V_phase? Or is there some other principle I am missing in applying here? Is it me or does this question seem real easy? I think the somewhat vague and seemingly simple NCEES solutions are brain...

Why is the terminal current = 1.0/_0 ? I think the zero degrees is because of unity power factor, correct? But I_base = 150MVA / 13.8kV = 6.27kA So, then the magnitude I_pu should be equal to I_actual / I_base, isn't it? What values do the term "rated" MVA and "rated" voltage refer to in the...

Can someone please offer an alternate solution/explanation for Problem 523? If I hadn't seen this problem ever before, and suppose it appears for the first time on the exam next week, it would not have dawned upon me that I would have approached this using their solution of drawing out the...

I understand the numerical derivations of the problem, up to the point in the solution where it says, "A positive swing of 5.4V will result in saturation of the BJT." "A negative swing of 4.6V will result in clipping of the output signal." Since V_c = -5.4V (it's of negative value), does this...

I noticed that Questions 104 & 105 fall under the "Safety - Electric shock and burns" Exam topic that is outlined by NCEES and the "other" board. My question is what reference(s) have you guys used on the actual test for this Safety exam topic. I mean there is no particular Chapter devoted...

I'm looking at this NEC code question and scratching my head. I am using NEC 2005 and Table 430.151B referred to in the solution is no longer there. So, obviously this must have changed since NEC 2002 publication. Then, I find an equivalent Table 430.251B in NEC 2005. However, there is no...

For those who have access or are familiar with the Kaplan Power PM Exam Solutions, I have a few questions: 1) Problem 4.2, how did they convert the delta-->wye impedances to be 4Z/3? 2) Problem 4.4, why is the cos 22.62 degrees lagging? Is it because it is positive so that means inductive...

Suppose a single-phase transformer is subjected to open-circuit and short-circuit tests. Additionally, the core loss (given in some arbitrary Watts) is at unity power factor. It just so happens that for this transformer, Copper losses (I^2 * R) = calculated short-circuit power Core losses =...

Problem # 525) In the solution, the first phrase states "The transformers will load in inverse proportion to their impedances." Problem # 531) In the solution, the first phrase states "The vars vary as the square of the applied voltage." For both problems, I am not looking for help in deriving...

Ok, so like the rest of the Oct. '07 PE (Electrical) Test takers, we are gonna spend the next few months (mind you, the rest of the summer) studying. I have some good questions that hopefully someone can answer: 1. Has anyone found any good PE EE sample exams on the web? There's gotta be some...
