SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(c)
Sol. Electric potential at a point in an electric field is defined as the work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to that point.
Or, V= W/q.
S2. Ans.(c)
Sol. Characteristics of an ideal op-amp:
Infinite open loop voltage
Infinite input resistance
Zero output resistance
Infinite bandwidth
Infinite common-mote rejection ratio (CMRR)
S3. Ans.(c)
Sol. A transmission line is said to be DISTORTIONLESS if attenuation constant ‘α’ is frequency independent and the phase shift constant ‘β’ is linearly dependent on the frequency.
The condition is – GL = RC
⇒L/C=R/G
S4. Ans.(c)
Sol. At maximum torque slip is, s_m=R_2/X_2 =0.08/0.4=0.2.
S5. Ans.(d)
Sol. The insulating materials used in cables should have the following properties
High insulation resistance to avoid leakage current.
High dielectric strength to avoid electrical breakdown of the cable.
High mechanical strength to withstand the mechanical handling of cables.
Non-hygroscopic, that is, it should not absorb moisture from air or soil.
Non-inflammable.
Low cost so as to make the underground system a viable proposition.
Unaffected by acids and alkalis to avoid any chemical action.
S6. Ans.(a)
Sol. Primary full-load current = VA rating / Primary Voltage
Primary full-load current = (2 * 1 000) / 480 V = 4.17 A
Secondary full-load current = VA rating / Secondary Voltage
Secondary full-load current = (2 * 1 000) / 120 V = 16.67 A
