The answer is
A B C Y
0 0 0 0
0 0 1 1
* * * 1
* * * 1
SO

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

A B C = OR NOR
0 0 0 0 1
0 0 1 1 0
0 1 0 1 0
0 1 1 1 0
1 0 0 1 0
1 0 1 1 0
1 1 0 1 0
1 1 1 1 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.

Kajal Ahuja said:   1 decade ago
The output of NOR gate is high only when all the inputs given to the gate are low that means the output will be 1 only when all inputs are 0.

Heena said:   1 decade ago
When both the inputs of OR gate are high then also output of NOR gate is high. So we cannot say that only in case of both low it will be high.

NOR means compliment of or for a 3 input or gate it has 7 possibilities of high.
Hence the ans is 1

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'.

But do we have more than 2 input NOR gate?
