A 0.52 cos 314 t
B 5.2 cos 314 t
C 0.52 sin 314 t
D 10 cos 314 t
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Z = xC – xL =

1ωCωL{1 \over {\omega C}} - \omega L

=

1314×100×106314×40×103{1 \over {314 \times 100 \times {{10}^{ - 6}}}} - 314 \times 40 \times {10^{ - 3}}

= 19.28

Ω\Omega

As Vm = ImZ \Rightarrow 10 = Im ×\times 19.28 \Rightarrow Im =

1019.28{{10} \over {19.28}}

= 0.52 A \therefore I = 0.52 sin(314t +

π2{\pi \over 2}

) = 0.52 cos(314t)

C I12+I222\sqrt {{{I_1^2 + I_2^2} \over 2}}
D I1+I222{{{I_1} + {I_2}} \over {2\sqrt 2 }}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
IRMS=I2dtdt{I_{RMS}} = \sqrt {{{\int {{I^2}dt} } \over {\int {dt} }}}
IRMS2=0T(I1sinωt+I2cosωt)2dtTI_{RMS}^2 = \int\limits_0^T {{{{{({I_1}\sin \omega t + {I_2}\cos \omega t)}^2}dt} \over T}}
=1T0T(I12sin2ωt+I22cos2ωt+2I1I2sinωtcosωt)dt= {1 \over T}\int\limits_0^T {(I_1^2{{\sin }^2}\omega t + I_2^2{{\cos }^2}\omega t + 2{I_1}{I_2}\sin \omega t\cos \omega t)dt}
=I122+I222+0= {{I_1^2} \over 2} + {{I_2^2} \over 2} + 0
IRMS=I12+I222{I_{RMS}} = \sqrt {{{I_1^2 + I_2^2} \over 2}}
Q55
A circuit element X\mathrm{X} when connected to an a.c. supply of peak voltage 100 V100 \mathrm{~V} gives a peak current of 5 A5 \mathrm{~A} which is in phase with the voltage. A second element Y\mathrm{Y} when connected to the same a.c. supply also gives the same value of peak current which lags behind the voltage by π2\dfrac{\pi}{2}. If X\mathrm{X} and Y\mathrm{Y} are connected in series to the same supply, what will be the rms value of the current in ampere?
A 102\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{2}}
B 52\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{2}}
C 525 \sqrt{2}
D 52\dfrac{5}{2}
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Element X should be resistive with, R=1005=20ΩR=\dfrac{100}{5}=20 \Omega Element Y should be inductive with,

XL=1005=20ΩX_{L}=\frac{100}{5}=20 \Omega

When X and Y are connector in series,

Z=202+202=202ΩI=100Z=100202=52irms=12I=52\begin{aligned} &Z=\sqrt{20^{2}+20^{2}}=20 \sqrt{2} \Omega \\\\ &I=\frac{100}{Z}=\frac{100}{20 \sqrt{2}}=\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}} \\\\ &i_{\mathrm{rms}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} I \\\\ &=\frac{5}{2} \end{aligned}
Q56
In an LC oscillator, if values of inductance and capacitance become twice and eight times, respectively, then the resonant frequency of oscillator becomes xx times its initial resonant frequency ω0\omega_0. The value of xx is :
A 1/4
B 1/16
C 4
D 16
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

The resonance frequency of LC oscillations circuit is

ω0=1LCL2 LC8Cω=12 L×8C=14LCω=ω04\begin{aligned} & \omega_0=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mathrm{LC}}} \\\\ & \mathrm{L} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{~L} \\\\ & \mathrm{C} \rightarrow 8 \mathrm{C} \\\\ & \omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{~L} \times 8 \mathrm{C}}}=\frac{1}{4 \sqrt{\mathrm{LC}}} \\\\ & \omega=\frac{\omega_0}{4} \end{aligned}

So x=14\mathrm{x}=\dfrac{1}{4}

Q57
In a LCRLCR circuit capacitance is changed from CC to 22 CC. For the resonant frequency to remain unchaged, the inductance should be changed from LL to
A L/2L/2
B 2L2L
C 4L4L
D L/4L/4
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

For resonant frequency to remain same

LCLC

should be const.

LC=LC=

const

LC=L×2CL=L2\Rightarrow LC = L' \times 2C \Rightarrow L' = {L \over 2}
Q58
The self inductance of the motor of an electric fan is 1010 HH. In order to impart maximum power at 5050 HzHz, it should be connected to a capacitance of
A 8μF8\mu F
B 4μF4\mu F
C 2μF2\mu F
D 1μF1\mu F
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

For maximum power,

XL=XC,{X_L} = X{}_C,

which yields

C=1(2πn)2L=14π2×50×50×10C = {1 \over {{{\left( {2\pi n} \right)}^2}L}} = {1 \over {4{\pi ^2} \times 50 \times 50 \times 10}}

\therefore

C=0.1×105F=1μFC = 0.1 \times {10^{ - 5}}F = 1\mu F
Q59
In a series resonant LCRLCR circuit, the voltage across RR is 100100 volts and R=1kΩR = 1\,k\Omega with C=2μF.C = 2\mu F. The resonant frequency ω\omega is 200200 rad/srad/s. At resonance the voltage across LL is
A 2.5×102V2.5 \times {10^{ - 2}}V
B 4040 VV
C 250250 VV
D 4×103V4 \times {10^{ - 3}}V
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Across resistor,

I=VR=1001000=0.1AI = {V \over R} = {{100} \over {1000}} = 0.1A

At resonance,

XL=XC=1ωC{X_L} = {X_C} = {1 \over {\omega C}}
=1200×2×106=2500= {1 \over {200 \times 2 \times {{10}^{ - 6}}}} = 2500

Voltage across

LL

is

IXL=0.1×2500=250VI{X_L} = 0.1 \times 2500 = 250V

Solution
e=dϕdt=d(NB.A)dte = - {{d\phi } \over {dt}} = - {{d\left( {N\overrightarrow B .\overrightarrow A } \right)} \over {dt}}
=Nddt(BAcosωt)=NBAωsinωt= - N{d \over {dt}}\left( {BA\,\cos \,\omega t} \right) = NBA\omega \sin \,\omega t
emax=NBAω\Rightarrow {e_{\max }} = NBA\omega
