50 Important Basic Electrical MCQ| Objective Type Question Of Basic Electrical

Ques 11. Two waves of the same frequency have opposite phase when the phase angle between them is

  1. 360°
  2. 180°
  3. 90°

Answer.2. 180°

Explanation:

If the phase difference is 180 degrees (π radians), then the two sine waves are said to be in anti-phase or Phase opposition i.e if one wave reaches its maximum value, then other will reach its minimum value.

 

Ques 12. The power consumed in a circuit element will be least when the phase difference between the current and voltage is

  1. 180″
  2. 90°
  3. 60°

Answer.2. 90°

Explanation:

Power is given as

P = VIcosΦ

Hence power will be maximum when sinΦ = 90°

Pmax = VIsin90°

Pmax = VI

 

Ques 13. The r.m.s. value and the Average value is the same in the case of

  1. Triangular wave
  2. Sine wave
  3. Square wave
  4. Half-wave rectified sine wave

Answer.3. Square Wave

Explanation:

The R.M.S value of Square wave is given as

Vrms square wave

The Average value of square wave is given as

average value square wave

Hence in case of square wave, the R.M.S voltage and Average Voltage is equal to peak voltage

 

Ques 14. For the same peak value which of the following wave will ‘have the highest r.m.s. value ?

  1. Square wave
  2. Half-wave rectified sine wave
  3. Triangular wave
  4. Sine wave

Answer.1. Square Wave

Explanation:

  • In the square wave, the R.M.S value and average value are same.
  • But, in other kinds of waveforms (for example, sine, triangle, rectangle, etc), the average value is less than the RMS value.

 

Ques 15. For the same peak value, which of the following wave has the least mean value?

  1. Half-wave rectifier sine wave
  2. Triangular wave
  3. Sine wave
  4. Square wave

Answer.1. Half-wave rectifier sine wave

Explanation:

The average value of half-wave rectifier sine wave is 0.318 which is least as compared to triangular wave(0.5), sine wave (0.637) and square wave

 

Ques 16. For a sine wave with peak value Imax the r.m.s. value is

  1. 5 Imax
  2. 0.707Imax
  3. 9Imax
  4. 0.414Imax

Answer.2. 0.707Imax

Explanation:

Peak value sinewave

 

Ques 17. Form Factor is the ratio of

  1. Average value/r.m.s. value
  2. Average value/peak value
  3. R.M.S value/average value
  4. R.M.S value/peak value

Answer.3. R.M.S value/average value

Explanation:

In electrical, the form factor of an alternating current waveform (signal) is the ratio of the RMS (root mean square) value to the average value (mathematical mean of absolute values of all points on the waveform).

 

Ques 18.  Form factor for a sine wave is

  1. 1.414
  2. 0.707
  3. 1.11
  4. 0.637

Answer.3. 1.11

Explanation:

Form factor is the ratio of R.M.S value/Average value

R.M.S value of sine wave = 0.707

Average value of sine wave = 0.637

Therefore Form factor = 0.707/0.637

=1.109 ≅ 1.11

 

Ques 19.  For a sine wave with peak value Vmax the average value is

  1. 0.637 Vmax
  2. 0.707 Vmax
  3. 0.434 Vmax
  4. 1.414Vmax

Answer.1. 0.637 Vmax

Explanation:

Peak value sinewave


 

Ques 20. For a frequency of 200 Hz, the time period will be

  1. 0.5 s
  2. 0.005 s
  3. 0.00005 s
  4. 5 s

Answer.2. 0.005s

Explanation:

Time = 1/Frequency

= 1/200

= 0.005s
