(a) Reduce the reactance of the line
(b) Increase the earth capacitance of the lowest unit
(c) Reduce the transmission line losses
(d) Reduce the earth capacitance of the lowest unit
Q6. An RLC series resonance circuit boosts:
(a) Inductance
(b) Frequency
(c) Current
(d) Resistance
SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(c)
Sol. Decreasing order of starting torque:
Capacitor start capacitor run > capacitor start > split phase
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. Electrostatic type has very low power consumption while induction type has very high-power consumption.
S3. Ans.(d)
Sol. Turn ratio=N1/N2 =V1/V2
Transformation ratio=N2/N1 =V2/V1 =110/550=0.2
S4. Ans.(a)
Sol. Diffusion capacitance is directly function of applied voltage or current. when forward bias voltage is applied across PN diode, a large number of charges is accumulated near the depletion layer, as a result, large diffusion capacitance occurs,
S5. Ans.(d)
Sol. The purpose of guard ring in transmission lines is to:
Reduce the earth capacitance of the lowest unit
Equal voltage distribution across each disc
S6. Ans.(c)
Sol. RLC series resonance circuit:
XL=XC and Z=R
As impedance is lower, the current will be maximum.
