solutions
S1. Ans.(b)
Sol. per unit (pu) quantity will be same on both side because the per-unit impedance is the same for the equivalent circuit of the transformer whether computed from the primary or secondary as long as the voltage bases on the two sides are selected in the ratio of transformation.
On HV side: Z_base=(VH^2)/S=(400)^2/4000=40 ohm
And Zpu=0.02+j 0.06
∴Zactual=Zbase×Zpu=0.8+j 2.4 ohm
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. Per unit regulation:
%regulation, lagging = 2*0.8+4*0.6= 4%
%regulation, leading = 2*0.8-4*0.6= -0.8%
S3. Ans.(d)
Sol. Hysteresis is the property exhibited by ferrous materials, particularly those having iron in its composition. So naturally air cored transformers will not have any hysteresis losses.
S4. Ans.(a)
Sol. B=Φ/A. for same Φ, A is less. so, weight will reduce.
S5. Ans.(b)
Sol. Priority order of interrupt in 8085:
TRAP > RST 7.5 > RST 6.5 > RST 5.5 > INTR
So, in 8085 TRAP has highest priority.
S6. Ans.(d)
Sol. Maximum torque in an induction motor, T_MAX ∝1/2X.
the maximum torque is independent of rotor resistance and is inversely proportional to rotor reactance. So, if we increase the rotor resistance the maximum torque will be unaltered.
S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. Starting Torque ∝ V². When the supply voltage is low, the starting torque is low and when the poles on stator and rotor are equal, due to locking tendency motor caused by the slot harmonics reduced/failed to start.
S8. Ans.(a)
Sol. Note: – for balanced star-connected system V_L=√3 V_ph and line voltage leads the phase voltage by 30°.
S9. Ans.(b)
Sol. Phase-lead compensator is used to decrease both rise time and overshoot.
S10. Ans.(d)
Sol. CMRR=Ad/Ac =10^5/0.01=10^7
