Answer:

(a) A acts as the two inputs of the NOR gate and Y is the output, as shown in the following figure. Hence, the output of the circuit ishttps://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/16/258/8066/NS_29-10-08_Sravana_12_Physics_14_19_NRJ_LVN_html_2893b2fe.gif .

(b) A and B are the inputs and Y is the output of the given circuit. By using the result obtained in solution (a), we can infer that the outputs of the first two NOR gates arehttps://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/16/258/8066/NS_29-10-08_Sravana_12_Physics_14_19_NRJ_LVN_html_6c53c074.gif as shown in the following figure.This is the truth table of a NOT gate. Hence, this circuit functions as a NOT gate.

The truth table for the same can be written as:

This is the truth table of an AND gate. Hence, this circuit functions as an AND gate
