t_{1} \gt t_{2}
t_{1} \lt t_{2}
t_{1} = t_{2}
t_{1}=t_{2}+5 \log 5

Q16.

The below figure shows four D-type flip-flops connected as a shift register using a XOR gate. The initial state and three subsequent states for three clock pulses are also given.\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text{State} & Q_{A} & Q_{B} & Q_{C} & Q_{D} \\\hline \text{Initial} & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\\hline \text{After the first clock} & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\\hline \text{After the second clock} & 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 \\\hline \text{After the third clock} & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 \\\hline \end{array}The state Q_{A} Q_{B} Q_{C} Q_{D} after the fourth clock pulse is
