Q81
If a full wave rectifier circuit is operating from 50 Hz mains, the fundamental frequency in the ripple will be
A 25 Hz
B 50 Hz
C 70.7 Hz
D 100 Hz
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

In full wave rectifier the fundamental frequency in ripple is twice of input frequency.

Q82
A n-p-n transistor conducts when
A both collector and emitter are positive with respect to the base
B collector is positive and emitter is negative with respect to the base
C collector is positive and emitter is at same potential as the base
D both collector and emitter are negative with respect to the base
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

When the collector is positive and emitter is negative with respect to base, it causes the forward biasing for each junction, which causes conduction of current.

Q83
Barrier potential of a p-n junction diode does not depened on
A diode design
B temperature
C forward bias
D doping density
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Barrier potential does not depend in diode design while barrier potential depends upon temperature, doping density and forward biasing.

Q84
Reverse bias applied to a junction diode
A lowers the potential barrier
B raises the potential barrier
C increases the majority carrier current
D increases the minority carrier current
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

In reverse bias, the size of the depletion region increases thereby increasing the potential barrier.

Q85
The given truth table is for which logic gate ABY110011101001\begin{array}{lll}A & B & Y \\ 1 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array}
A NAND
B XOR
C NOR
D OR.
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

This truth table represents NAND gate.

Q86
In a p-n junction
A high potential at n side and low potential at p side
B high potential at P side and low potential at n side
C p and n both are at same potential
D undetermined.
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

For conduction, p-n junction must be forward biased.

For this p-side should be connected to higher potential and n-side to lower potential.

Q87
Number of atom per unit cell in B.C.C.
A 9
B 4
C 2
D 1
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

In body-centred cubic (b.c.c.) lattice there are eight atoms at the corners of the cube and one at the centre.

Therefore number of atom per unit cell =

18×8{1 \over 8} \times 8

+ 1 = 2

Q88
For a transistor ICIE{{{I_C}} \over {{I_E}}} = 0.96, then current gain for common emitter is
A 12
B 6
C 48
D 24
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution
ICIE{{{I_C}} \over {{I_E}}}

= 0.96 = α\alpha \therefore Current gain, β\beta =

ICIB{{{I_C}} \over {{I_B}}}

=

α1α{\alpha \over {1 - \alpha }}

= 24

Q89
The given truth table is for which logic gate ABY110011101001\begin{array}{lll}A & B & Y \\ 1 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array}
A NAND
B XOR
C NOR
D OR
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

This truth table represents NAND gate.

Q90
For a common base circuit if ICIE{{{I_C}} \over {{I_E}}} = 0.98 then current gain for common emitter circuit will be
A 49
B 98
C 4.9
D 25.5.
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
ICIE{{{I_C}} \over {{I_E}}}

= 0.98 = α\alpha \therefore Current gain, β\beta =

ICIB{{{I_C}} \over {{I_B}}}

=

α1α{\alpha \over {1 - \alpha }}

= 49
