    This document contains the details of a final exam for a Basic Electrical Technology course, including 6 questions with multiple parts each. Question 1 asks students to define temperature coefficient of resistance, calculate resistance increase for a copper winding, and use star-delta transformation. Question 2 includes calculating self and mutual inductance from coil properties, and determining inductor current over time. Question 3 requires deriving the phasor relationship for a pure inductor, calculating power factor for a series circuit, and determining capacitance to improve power factor.
