SOLUTIONS
S1. Ans.(b)
Sol. according to Question, X_L=X_C = 20 Ω.
So, it is a case of series Resonance.
For RLC circuit at Resonance Z = R = 10 Ω
∴ I = V/R=100/10
= 10 A
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. The primary winding of the current transformer is connected in series with the transmission line whose current is to be measured whereas the potential transformer is connected in parallel with the line
S3. Ans.(a)
Sol. Ө_electrical=P/2 Ө_mechanical
Where, P= Numbers of pole
∴Ө_mechanical=2/4×120=60
S4. Ans.(a)
Sol. p_cu/P_md =S/((1-s))
P_cu=s/(1-S)×P_md
= 0.04/(1-0.04)×15×10³
= 625 watts
S5. Ans.(b)
Sol. For induction motor –
T=(KS E₂²R₂)/(R₂²+(S×_2)²)
at low value of slip, S×_2≪R₂
⇒ T=(KSE₂²R₂)/(R₂²)
⇒ T∝S
S6. Ans.(c)
Sol. Diversity factor = (sum of individual max.demand)/(coincident maximum demand of whole system)
=(15000+12000+8500+6000+450)/22000
=41950/22000
=1.91
Note: If the value of the diversity factor is greater than 1, then it is a good diversity factor, and 1.0 represents a poor diversity factor. A high diversity factor has the effect of reducing the maximum demand.
