    (A) (B)

    (C) (D)

    Key: (C)Exp: The circuit can be re drawn as

    During positive pulse, both diodes are forward biased. So output pulse of +ve polarity isproduced. As polarity at ‘d’ and ‘c’ is given opposite to input terminals, hence +ve pulseis inverted. During negative pulse, both diodes are reverse biased. So, V 0 = 0V

    finally shift it by 10nsec to obtain actual X. Similar procedure to be followed forobtaining Y and Z i.e., first draw waveform with 0 delay and at the end shift by theamount of delay given in question.
