Why K-Notes?
Towards the end of preparation, a student has lost the time to revise all the chapters from his /
her class notes / standard text books. This is the reason why K-Notes is specifically intended for
Quick Revision and should not be considered as comprehensive study material.
ww
A 40 page or less notebook for each subject which contains all concepts covered in GATE
w.E
Curriculum in a concise manner to aid a student in final stages of his/her preparation. It is highly
useful for both the students as well as working professionals who are preparing for GATE as it
comes handy while traveling long distances.
En
gin
It is highly recommended to use K-Notes in the last 2 months before GATE Exam
(November end onwards).

How do I use K-Notes?
rin
g.n
Once you finish the entire K-Notes for a particular subject, you should practice the respective
Subject Test / Mixed Question Bag containing questions from all the Chapters to make best use
of it.

1) Accuracy
Degree of closeness in which a measured value approaches a true value of a quality under
measurement .
When accuracy is measured in terms of error :
Guaranteed accuracy error (GAE) is measured with respect to full scale deflation.

4) Resolution
S
qi
ee rin
Smallest change in input which can be measured by an instrument
g.n
5) Threshold
Minimum input required to get measurable output by an instrument et
6) Zero Drift
Entire calibration shifts gradually due to permanent set
7) Span Drift
If there is proportional change in indication all along upward scale is called span drift.
ww
8) Dead zone & Dead time
w.E
The range of input for which there is no output this portion is called Dead zone.
To respond the pointer takes a minimum time is called dead time.

If friction is over compensated by placing shading loop nearer to PC, then disc starts rotating
slow with only PC excited without connecting any load is creeping.
Otherwise if over voltage is applied on pressure coil then also creeping may happen due to

stray magnetic fields.
To remove creeping holes are kept on either side of disc diametrically opposite & the torque
w.E
experienced by both holes is opposite & they stop creeping.
