[14] By passing a triangular wave through a differentiating circuit the output wave shape is

a) Spikes
b) Squarewave
c) Sawtooth
d) Sinewave

Ans: A

[15] Clipper circuits are used to obtain any one of the following waveforms

a) Sharper
b) Rectified
c) Fast Rising
d) Smaller Amplitude

Ans: D

Solution Hint:
[1] When the temperature increases, the resistance of conductor(copper) decreases and resistance of semiconductor(germanium) increases
 [7] In the FET, the gate terminal is electrically isolated from the channel. ie, it is always unbiased.
[10] TVS stands for Transient Voltage suppressor. It is used for transient voltage protection. 
[15] The clipper circuit will clip part of the waveform. so it can be used for smaller amplitude of the waveform.
