MCQ
The AC produced in India changes its direction in every:
  • A
    $\frac{1}{100}\text{second}$
  • B
    100 second
  • C
    50 second
  • D
    None of these

Answer

  1. $\frac{1}{100}\text{second}$

Explanation:

In India, the frequency of AC voltage is 50 Hz.

It means 50 waves will be produced in 1 s.

In one wave, the direction is changed 2 times.

Thus, in 50 waves, the direction will be altered 50 × 2 = 100 times.

i.e. the direction is changed 100 times in 1 s.

Thus the direction is changed in every $\frac{1}{100}\text{second}$
