SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(d)
Sol. If shunt capacitance is zero the charging current through each disc will be the same. This means that voltage across each disc is the same. This in turn means 100% string efficiency.
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. Wave – wound has only two parallel paths. Wave-wound generators provide less current but more voltage.
S3. Ans.(c)
Sol. in synchronous motor: –
(A)Stator frame → made up of Cast iron/welded steel plates
(B)Core → made up of silicon steel
S4. Ans.(b)
Sol. Energy consumed by the load in 2 minutes
=(V I cosϕ)/1000×t=(230 × 10 × 0.8)/1000×2/60 = 0.06 KWh
S5. Ans.(a)
Sol. There are 3 types of speed control for dc drives: –
(i) Armature voltage control
(ii) Field flux control
(iii) Armature resistance control
We know▭(N∝1/ϕ)
Armature voltage control technique gives high efficiency but below base speed.
So, above base speed, Field flux control is used, where by weakening the field, speed above base speed can be achieved because these two are inversely proportional to each other.
S6. Ans.(a)
Sol. One lux=1 lumen/m²
S7. Ans.(c)
Sol. Hard magnets, also referred to as permanent magnets, are magnetic materials that retain their magnetism after being magnetised. It is used for manufacturing permanent magnets.
S8. Ans.(b)
Sol. The emf induced in a straight conductor of length l moving with velocity v perpendicular to a magnetic field B is: E =Blvsinθ.
S9. Ans.(c)
Sol.
B=Xc/Z^2 =2/((1)^2+(2)^2 )=2/5=0.4 S
S10. Ans.(a)
Sol. εr=ε/εo
∴ Absolute permittivity, = ε=ε0 εr=8.854×10^(-12)×10=8.854×10^- 11 F/m
