(d) Non inductive
SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(d)
Sol. I_total=P/V=(25×1000)/200=125 A
For WAVE wound: number of parallel paths=2
∴ the current in each parallel path=I_total/2=125/2=62.5 A
S2. Ans.(b)
Sol. Air gap power or rotor input power (P_g )=stator input power-stator loss
∴P_g=50000-800=49200 W
Rotor copper loss (P_cu )=sP_g=0.005×49200=246 W
S9. Ans.(a)
Sol. For parallel RLC: ξ=1/2R √(L/C)
For critically damped: ?=1
∴1=1/2R √((10×10^(-3))/(100×10^(-6) ))
⇒R=10/2 =5Ω
S10. Ans.(c)
Sol. In a dynamometer type wattmeter, the pressure coil connected across the load terminal is highly Resistive.
