HELP Unit-Impulse Response for Discrete System problem

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around solving unit-impulse response problems for discrete-time systems. Two specific equations are presented, with participants seeking help to compute the impulse responses and identify correct answer options. One user reports successfully solving the second equation but believes none of the provided answers are correct, which their teacher has confirmed. The conversation emphasizes the method of replacing variables in the equations to find the impulse response and expresses confusion about the next steps after calculating initial values. The thread highlights the challenges faced in understanding and applying impulse response calculations in digital filters.

HELP!Unit-Impulse Response for Discrete System problem

Please help me solve these problems. Thank you so much for all your help.

Compute the unit-pulse response for the discrete time system

1) y[n + 2] + 1/2 y[n+1]+1/4y[n] = x[n+1]-x[n] (for n = 0, 1, 2)
For number 1) the options for right answers are:
a. 0, -1, 2
b. 0, -1, 1/2
c. 0, 1, -3/2
d. 0, 1, 2

2) y[n + 2] + 1/4 y[n+1]-3/8y[n+2] = 2x[n+2]-3x[n](for n = 0, 1, 2)
For number 2) the options for right answers are:
a. 0, -1, 4
b. 2, -1/4, 1/2
c. 0, -1, -3/2
d. 2, -1/2, -17/8

I am completely stuck if you could at least give me the right answer still it will be helpful.

Show us what you've learned about how to calculate the impulse response of a digital filter, and then we can help you.
 
Hey I already figured out the second one. None of the answers are right. But and I told my teacher about it and he agreed with me. I am confortable doing impulse response but not this one.
Generally in impulse response we replaceY[n] with h[n] and x[n] with delta[n] and put the n values as given 0,1,2 and find the values for the value of h[n]. first we re arrange the equation for h[n] and then find it. but after finding those values what should I do ? I am stuck right there.
Thanks
 
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
