Ques.31. Reflected Light/Incident Light =

  1. Reflection factor
  2. Maintenance factor
  3. Absorption factor
  4. Waste light factor

Answer.1. Reflection factor

Explanation:-

The ratio of luminous flux leaving the surface (Reflected Light) to the luminous flux incident on it (Incident Light) is known as the reflection factor.

Reflection Factor = Reflected light/Incident light

The value of the Reflection factor is always less than 1.

 

Ques.32. A shaded pole motor is basically a motor

  1. Synchronous
  2. Shunt
  3. Series
  4. Single-phase induction

Answer.4. Single-phase induction 

Explanation:- 

The shaded-pole motor is the original type of AC single-phase induction motor. Shaded pole-type single-phase induction motors are provided with shading rings on their poles which are the projected type of poles. The stator of such motors has projected poles like DC machines as shown in Fig. 5.7. The rotor is a squirrel cage type similar to that of split-phase-type motors. The poles are excited by giving a single-phase AC supply. A single-turn thick coil in the form of a ring called the shading ring is fitted on each side of every pole as shown. The portion of the poles where the shading ring is fitted is called the shaded portion, while the other portion is called the unshaded portion.

Shaded pole motor

The shaded pole motor has the lowest starting torque as compared to the all single-phase induction motors.

 

Ques.33. H = ____is the expression for the magnetic field due to an infinite linear current-carrying conductor.

  1. (μI ⁄ 2Πr) A/m
  2. (μI ⁄ 2r) A/m
  3. (I ⁄ 2Πr) A/m
  4. (I ⁄ 2r) A/m

Answer.3. (I ⁄ 2Πr) A/m

Explanation:- 

Magnetic Field Strength (H)  gives the quantitative measure of strongness or weakness of the magnetic field.

H = B/μo

Where

B = Magnetic Flux Density

μo = Vacuum Permeability

Magnetic field due to infinite Linear current-carrying conductor is

B = μoI/2πr

B/μo = I/2πr

H = (I/2πr)A/m

Ques.35. Prevention of interference with neighboring telephone lines can be done by:

  1. Using bundled conductors
  2. Reducing skin effect
  3. Reducing corona
  4. Transposing transmission lines

Answer.4. Transposing transmission lines

Explanation:- 

Interference of Transmission and communication line

In practice, it is observed that the power lines and the communication lines run along the same path. Sometimes it can also be seen that both these lines run on Sam supports along the same route. The transmission lines transmit bulk power with relatively high voltage. Electromagnetic and electrostatic fields are produced by these lines having sufficient magnitude. Because of these fields, voltages, and currents at induced in the neighboring communication lines. Thus it gives rise to interference c power line with the communication circuit.

“if the power line is running along the same route as the communication line, there will be interference in the communication line due to both electromagnetic and electrostatic effects.” The electromagnetic effect produces currents, which is superimposed on the communication signal, and thereby it is distorted. However, the electrostatic effect induces a voltage in the communication line, which may be dangerous in handling the telephone receiver.

Effect of Transposition:- The purpose of transposition is to balance the capacitances of the line so that the electrostatically induced voltages balance out in the length of a complete set of transposition, and this length is called a barrel.

Transposition also results in the decrease of electromagnetically induced e.m.f. on the wires, because of fluxes due to the positive and negative phase sequence, currents will add up to zero along the barrel.

 

Ques.36. Find the frequency of rotor induced EMF of a 3-phase, 440V, 50 Hz induction motor has a slip of 10%.

  1. 25Hz
  2. 2.5Hz
  3. 5Hz
  4. 50Hz

Answer.3. 5 Hz

Explanation:- 

Given Data

Voltage = 440 V

Frequency = 50 Hz

Slip = 10% =0.1

Now,

Rotor frequency = slip × frequency

= 0.1 × 50 = 5 Hz

 

Ques.37. The Thevenin’s resistance as seen through the terminals A and B is:

The Thevenin's resistance as seen through the terminals A and B is:

  1. 5 Ω
  2. 6 Ω
  3. 4 Ω
  4. 7 Ω

Answer.1.

To find the Thevenin’s Resistance Rth  replace all the voltage source by the short circuit  remove the Load resistance i.e 10 Ω from the circuit as shown in the figure

The Thevenin's resistance as seen through the terminals A and B is:

Now the resistance 2Ω and 4Ω are in series and they both are connected in parallel to the resistance 6Ω i.e

R1 = (2Ω + 4Ω)||6Ω

= 6Ω||6Ω

= (6 × 6)/(6 + 6)

R1 = 3Ω

The Thevenin's resistance as seen through the terminals A and B is:

Now the resistance 3Ω and 3Ω are in series and they both are connected in parallel to the resistance 6Ω i.e

R2 = (3Ω + 3Ω)||6Ω

= 6Ω||6Ω

= (6 × 6)/(6 + 6)

R2 = 3Ω

At last, the resistance 2Ω and 3Ω are connected in series

The Thevenin's resistance as seen through the terminals A and B is:

Rth = 2Ω + 3Ω = 5Ω

Rth = 5Ω

 

Ques.38. Two inductors of 4H and 6H are connected in series. The equivalent inductance of this combination is

Answer.1. 10 H

Explanation:-

Ques.39. In the full-wave rectifier circuit shown in the figure, the diodes that conduct when the positive half-wave of AC signal applied are

In the full-wave rectifier circuit shown in the figure, the diodes that conduct when the positive half-wave of AC signal applied are

  1. D3, D4
  2. D4, D1

Explanation:- 

During the positive half cycle of the supply, diodes D1 and D2 conduct are forward biased and conduct current while diodes D3 and D4 are reverse biased and they act as an open circuit,  the current flows through the load.

 

Ques.40. Which of the following lamps has the shortest/less life span in working hours?

  1. Fluorescent lamp
  2. Incandescent lamp
  3. Sodium vapor lamp
  4. Mercury vapor lamp

Answer.2. Incandescent lamp

Explanation:- 

The lifespan of a bulb is referred to as “Average Rated Lifetime Hours” (ARL). Incandescent bulbs generally have the shortest lifespans. The average incandescent bulb light span is approximately 750-2,000 hours. Fluorescent lights generally have a life expectancy of 10,000 to 20,000 hours and other high-intensity lamps, such as high-pressure sodium, have greater than 20,000 hours of life expectancy.
