SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(d)
Sol. L=B-(N-1)
Where; B=number of branches=Loops and N=Nodes
∴10=B-(7-1)
⇒B=10+6=16.
S2. Ans.(d)
Sol. For PMMC instrument:
Ө α I ⇒uniform scale
the scale in the instrument can be divided properly
It generates no losses because of hysteresis.
It uses less power
It is not influenced by the stray magnetic field.
High accuracy
S3. Ans.(c)
Sol. Type of cable Operating voltage
Low tension <1 KV
High tension 1-11 KV
Super tension 11-33 KV
Extra high tension <66 KV
S4. Ans.(a)
Sol. For isolation transformer = 1:1
S5. Ans.(d)
Sol. f_r=150/60=2.5 Hz
We know, f_r=sf
∴s=f_r/f=2.5/50×100=5 %
S6. Ans.(b)
Sol. Resistance to be connected across the contacts to eliminate the re-striking voltage is R=0.5√(L/C)
∴ R=0.5 √(8/(0.02×10^(-6) )) = 10 KΩ.
