GATE Electrical Circuits: Transient Analysis – Previous Year Questions

3 GATE previous year questions on Transient Analysis (Electrical Circuits, Biomedical Engineering) with answers and explanations, from every paper.

  1. GATE 2021 BM Q60 (2 marks, Numerical answer) – In the shown circuit, Vₛ=50 V and L=0.1 H. Let the circuit reach steady state with the SPDT switch at position 1, then move it to position 2. Both…
  2. GATE 2023 BM Q30 (1 mark, Numerical answer) – In the shown circuit, switch S is open for t<0 and closes at t=0. Find the steady-state capacitor voltage in volts after closing, rounded to one…
  3. GATE 2026 BM Q25 (1 mark, Multiple choice) – The shown circuit has a 10 V source, a 10 μH inductor and two 100 Ω branches. It is initially at DC steady state with S open. Immediately after S…
