AC Network Theorem MCQ [Free PDF] – Objective Question Answer for AC Network Theorem Quiz

21. Mathematically, Kirchhoff’s Voltage law can be ________

A. βˆ‘_(k=0)n(V) = 0
B. V2βˆ‘_(k=0)n(V) = 0
C. Vβˆ‘_(k=0)n(V) = 0
D. None of the mentioned

Answer: A

According to KVL, the sum of all voltages of branches in a closed loop is zero.

Kirchhoff’s voltage law is based on the principle of conservation of energy. This requires that the total work done in taking a unit positive charge around a closed path and ending up at the original point is zero.

 

22. Find the value of v if v1 = 20V and the value of the current source is 6A.

Find the value of v if v1=20V and the value of the current source are 6A.

A. 10V
B. 12V
C. 14V
D. 16V

Answer: B. 12 V

The current through the 10 ohm resistor = v1/10 = 2A.

Applying KCL at node 1:

i5 = i10+i2. i2 = 6-2 = 4A.

Thus the drop in the 2 ohm resistor = 4 Γ— 2 = 8V.

v1 = 20V;

hence v2 = 20-v across 2 ohm resistor = 20-8 = 12V

v2 = v s

ince they are connected in parallel.

v = 12V.

 

23. In the circuit shown in the figure, find the current flowing through the 8 Ξ© resistance.

In the circuit shown in the figure, find the current flowing through the 8 Ξ© resistance.

  1. 0.25 A
  2. 0.50 A
  3. 0.75 A
  4. 0.10 A

Answer.1. 0.25A

Let voltage across the 8Β Ξ© resistance is ‘V’ volt.

∴ Current across the 8 Ω is given by

I = V/8

Now by applying KCL at the nodeΒ  we get

\({{V – 5} \over 2}+{{V +3} \over 4}+{{V } \over 8}=0\)

4V – 20 + 2V + 6 + V = 0

V = 14/7

NowΒ current flowing through the 8 Ξ© resistance is

I = 2/8

I = 0.25 A

 

24. Calculate the current A by using Kirchhoff’s current law

Calculate the current A by using Kirchhoff's current law

A. 5A
B. 10A
C. 15A
D. 20A

Answer: C

KCl states that the total current leaving the junction is equal to the current entering it. In this case, the current entering the junction is 5A+10A = 15A.

 

25. In the figure shown, the current 𝑖 (in ampere) is __________

In the figure shown, the current 𝑖 (in ampere) is

  1. -1 Amp
  2. 5 Amp
  3. 2 Amp
  4. -2 Amp

Answer.1. -1 Amp

Apply KCL at node V1, we get:

In the figure shown, the current 𝑖 (in ampere) is

\(\frac{{{{\rm{V}}_1} – 0}}{1} + \frac{{{{\rm{V}}_1} – 8}}{1} + \frac{{{{\rm{V}}_1} – 0}}{1} + \frac{{{{\rm{V}}_1} – 8}}{1} = 0\)

4V1Β – 16 = 0

V1Β = 4 V

Again, applying KCL, we can write:

\({\rm{i}} + \frac{{\left( {0 – {{\rm{V}}_1}} \right)}}{1} + 5 = 0 \)

i = V1 βˆ’ 5 = 4 βˆ’ 5 = βˆ’1 Amp

 

26. By using Kirchhoff’s current law calculate the current across the 20-ohm resistor.

By using Kirchhoff's current law calculate the current across the 20-ohm resistor.

A. 20A
B. 1A
C. 0.67A
D. 0.33A

Answer: D

Assume a lower terminal of 20 ohms at 0V and upper terminal at V volt and applying KCL, we get

V/10 +V/20 = 1. V = 20/3V

So current through 20 ohm

= V/20 = (20/3)/20

= 1/3 = 0.33V.

 

27. The total charge q(t), in the coulombs, that enters the terminal of an element is:

\(q(t) = \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {0\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,t < 0}\\ {2t\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,0 \le t \le 2}\\ {3 + {e^{ – 2(t – 2)}}\,\,t > 2} \end{array}} \right.\)

Determine the current at t = 5 s.

  1. 0 A
  2. 2 A
  3. -2e-6Β A
  4. 3 + e-6Β A

Answer.3.

Electric current, i = Rate of transfer of electric charge.

i(t) = dQ/dt

Calculation:

t = 5 s so, equation 3rd is consider.

\(i = \frac{{dQ}}{{dt}} = \frac{d}{{dt}}\left( {3 + {e^{ – 2\left( {t – 2} \right)}}} \right)\)

 

\(i = {e^{ – 2\left( {t – 2} \right)}}\frac{d}{{dt}}\left[ { – 2\left( {t – 2} \right)} \right]\)

 

\(i = {e^{ – 2\left( {t – 2} \right)}}\left( { – 2} \right)\)

 

\(i = – 2{e^{ – 2\left( {t – 2} \right)}}\)

Put the value of t = 5, then we get,

i = βˆ’2eβˆ’6A

 

28. Calculate the value of I3, if I1 = 2A and I2 = 3A by applying Kirchhoff’s current law

Calculate the value of I3, if I1= 2A and I2=3A by applying Kirchhoff's current law

A. -5A
B. 5A
C. 1A
D. -1A

Answer: A

According to KCl, I1+I2+I3 = 0.

Hence I3 = -(I1+I2) = -5A.

 

29. Find the value of the currents I1, I2, and I3 flowing clockwise in the

Find the value of the currents I1, I2 and I3 flowing clockwise in the

A. 1.54A, βˆ’ 0.189A, βˆ’ 1.195A
B. 2.34A, βˆ’ 3.53A, βˆ’ 2.23A
C. 4.33A, 0.55A, 6.02A
D. βˆ’ 1.18A, βˆ’ 1.17A, βˆ’ 1.16A

Answer: A

The three mesh equations are:

βˆ’ 3I1 + 2I2 βˆ’ 5 = 0

2I1 βˆ’ 9I2 + 4I3 = 0

4I2 βˆ’ 9I3 βˆ’ 10 = 0

Solving the equations, we get

I1 = 1.54A, I2 = βˆ’ 0.189 and I3 = βˆ’ 1.195A.

 

30. Find the value of the currents I1 and I2 flowing clockwise in the first

Find the value of the currents I1 and I2 flowing clockwise in the first

A. 0.96A, 1.73A
B. 0.96A, βˆ’ 1.73A
C. βˆ’ 0.96A, 1.73A
D. βˆ’ 0.96A, βˆ’ 1.73A

Answer: B

The two mesh equations are:

5I1 βˆ’ 3I2 = 10

βˆ’ 3I1 + 7I2 = βˆ’ 15

Solving the equations simultaneously, we get

I1 = 0.96A and I2 = βˆ’ 1.73A.
