For nor gate the basic truth table s A B Y
0 0 1
0 1 0
1 0 0
1 1 0
and in the same way truth tablefor 3input norgate s
A B C Y
0 0 0 1
0 0 1 0
0 1 0 0
0 1 1 0
1 0 0 0
1 0 1 0
1 1 0 0
1 1 1 0 here only one output s high.hence option A

Actually the truth table for NOR Gate is given by
A B Y
0 0 1
0 1 0
1 0 0
1 1 0

And similarly truth table for 3input nor gate is;
A B C Y
0 0 0 1
0 0 1 0
0 1 0 0
0 1 1 0
1 0 0 0
1 0 1 0
1 1 0 0
1 1 1 0

So, only one output is high. Hence option A is the correct option to be elected which was given in the choices.

Truth table of NOR

i/pa   i/pb   o/p
0 0 1
0 1 0
1 0 0
1 1 0


Now in 8 connection only 1 can have 0 0 0 i/p so that 1 connectn can remain high.

1 0 0 1 0
1 0 1 1 0
1 1 0 1 0
1 1 1 1 0

NOR is OR+INVERT so OR will be 1 when any one of inputs is '1' but in NOR output will be inverted OR. So when all inputs are '0' OR output will be '0' and its inverted means NOR output will be '1'.

For a NOR gate, whenever there is a 1 in Input, the output will remain LOW (0). So, count the number of possibilities to have both inputs as zero. In our case it's+ only 1 possibility.

NOR gate will only produce a logic 1 output when all inputs are simultaneously at logic 0. Any other input combination will produce a logic 0 output.

Because in nor gate if any of the input is high the output is low.

So, we are left with only one case when output is high i.e. A=0, B=0 and C=0.

Only, . A=0, B=0, C=0 is equal output is 1. That means high. But the another possibilities output is also 0. That means low. So our answer is 1.
