SOLUTIONS

S1. Ans.(b)
Sol. The Split Phase Motor is also known as a Resistance Start Motor. It has a single cage rotor, and its stator has two windings known as main winding and starting winding. Both the windings are displaced 90 degrees in space.
The main /running winding has very low resistance and a high inductive reactance.
the starting winding has high resistance and low inductive reactance.

S2. Ans.(d)
Sol. Overvoltage (surges) on power systems are due to various causes…
lightning
switching operation
faults

S3. Ans.(b)
Sol. C=(2πϵ0)/ln⁡(d/r)
Where; d=spacing between conductors
And r=radius of conductors
Therefore, if we increase the spacing(d) between the phase conductors, the line capacitance will decrease.

S4. Ans.(c)
Sol. For generator, Eg ∝ N. So, the critical field resistance also increases slightly with speed.
Critical field resistance(Rf ) α N
∴(Rf2 )/Rf1 =N2/N1
⇒R_f2=1000/800×200=250 Ω

S6. Ans.(c)
Sol. Synchronous speed for forward rotating flux, Ns = 120 f/P = 120 × 50/6 = 1000 r.p.m.
Therefore, slip for forward rotating flux is
sf=s=(Ns-N)/Ns =(1000-900)/1000=0.1
∴ Rotor current frequency for sf is f’ = sf × f = 0.1 × 50 = 5 Hz.
Slip for backward rotating flux sb =(2 – s) =(2 – 0.1) = 1.9. Therefore, rotor current frequency, f” = (2 – s) × f = 1.9 × 50 = 95 Hz.
