Q. Consider a Michelson interferometer as shown in the figure below. When the wavelength of the laser light source is switched from 400 nanometer to 500 nanometer, it is observed that the intensity measured at the output port P goes from a minimum to a maximum. This observation is possible when the smallest path difference

Q. A signal 𝑥(𝑡) has a bandwidth 2𝐵 about a carrier frequency of 𝑓𝑐 = 2 GHz as shown in Figure (a) below. In order to demodulate this signal, it is first mixed (multiplied) with a local oscillator of frequency 𝑓𝐿𝑂 = 1.5 GHz, and then passed through an ideal low-pass filter (LPF) with a
