- A
$0\, \mu C, \,0\, \mu C$
- B
$12\, \mu C, \,24\, \mu C$
- ✓
$120\, \mu C, \,0\, \mu C$
- D
$120\, \mu C, \,120\, \mu C$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $120\, \mu C, \,0\, \mu C$
c
In steady state no current will flow through capacitor of $10\,\mu F$ as it get full change and full voltage equal to $12\,V$, and charge aquired in transition peroid by $24\,\mu F$ will leak through resister of $4\,\Omega$. Hence final change on $2\,\mu C$ will be zero

A coil carrying a steady current is short-circuited. The current in it decreases $\alpha $ times in $t_0$. The time constant of the circuit is:-
- A
$\tau = {t_0}\,{\log _e}\,\alpha $
- ✓
$\tau = {t_0}/{\log _e}\,\alpha $
- C
$\tau = {t_0}/\alpha $
- D
$\tau = \frac{{{t_0}}}{{\alpha - 1}}$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $\tau = {t_0}/{\log _e}\,\alpha $
b
$\mathrm{I}=\frac{\mathrm{I}_{0}}{\alpha}$ at $\mathrm{t}=\mathrm{t}_{0}$
since ${\rm{I}} = {{\rm{I}}_0}{{\rm{e}}^{ - {{\rm{t}}_0}/\tau }} \Rightarrow \frac{{{{\rm{I}}_0}}}{\alpha } = {{\rm{I}}_0}{{\rm{e}}^{ - {{\rm{t}}_0}/\tau }}$
$\alpha=e^{t_{0} / \tau} \Rightarrow t_{0}=\tau \log _{e} \alpha$
$\boxed{\tau = \frac{{{t_0}}}{{{{\log }_e}\alpha }}}$

Answerd
Given $B=0.01-2 \,t$ $\mathrm{Tesla};$ $\frac{\mathrm{dB}}{\mathrm{dt}}=-2 \mathrm{\,Tesla} / \mathrm{sec},$
Induced emf $\mathrm{e}=-\frac{\mathrm{d} \phi}{\mathrm{dt}}=-\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{dt}}(\mathrm{BA})$

Since magnetic field $( \times )$ decreasing so according to Lenz's law direction of induced current in upper part of square will be clockwise i.e. from $\mathrm{A}$ to $\mathrm{C}$ or in other words emf induces in a direction opposite to the main emf so resultant emf $=10-1=9 \,V.$

Figure shows a circular region of radius $R$ in which uniform magnetic field $B$ exists. The magnetic field is increasing at a rate $\frac{d B}{d t}$. The induced electric field at a distance $r$ from the centre for $r < R$ is ............

AnswerCorrect option: A. $\frac{d B}{d t} \frac{r}{2}$
a
(a)
Rate of increase of $B=\frac{d B}{d t}$
$E_{ m } \times 2 \pi r=-\frac{d \phi}{d t}$
or $E \times 2 \pi r=-A \frac{d B}{d t}$
$E \times 2 \pi r=-\pi r^2 \frac{d B}{d t}$
$\therefore E=\frac{-r}{2} \frac{d B}{d t}$

In a transformer, number of turns in the primary are $140$ and that in the secondary are $280$. If current in primary is $4\, A$, then that in the secondary is........$A$
Answerb
Given $: \mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{p}}=4 \mathrm{\,A}, \quad \mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}}=140;$
$\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{s}}=280^{\circ}$
From the formula
$\frac{\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{p}}}{\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{s}}}=\frac{\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{s}}}{\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}}} \quad$ or $\quad \frac{4}{\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{s}}}=\frac{280}{140}$
So, $\quad i_{s}=2 \,A$

If a step up transformer have turn ratio $5$, frequency $50\,Hz$ root mean square value of potential difference on primary $100\,volts$ and the resistance of the secondary winding is $500\,\Omega $ then the peak value of voltage in secondary winding will be (the efficiency of the transformer is hundred percent)

$500 \sqrt 2 $
- B
$10 \sqrt 2 $
- C
$50 \sqrt 2 $
- D
$20 \sqrt 2 $
AnswerCorrect option: A. $500 \sqrt 2 $
a
Peak voltage in primary $\mathrm{V}_{0}=\sqrt{2} \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{rms}}=100 \sqrt{2}$
$\frac{V_{s}}{V_{p}}=\frac{N_{2}}{N_{1}} \Rightarrow V_{s}=\frac{N_{s}}{N_{p}} \times V_{p}$
$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{s}}=5 \times 100 \sqrt{2}=500 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{\,V}$

- B
$240\,V, 10\,A$
- C
$60\,V, 20\,A$
- D
$120\,V, 20\,A$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $240\,V, 5\,A$
a

An alternating current of frequency $200\,rad/sec$ and peak value $1\,A$ as shown in the figure, is applied to the primary of a transformer. If the coefficient of mutual induction between the primary and the secondary is $1.5\,H$ , the voltage induced in the secondary will be.....$V$

Answerb
$\mathrm{e}=-\mathrm{M} \frac{\mathrm{di}}{\mathrm{dt}}=-1.5 \frac{(1-0)}{(\mathrm{T} / 4)}=-\frac{6}{\mathrm{T}}$
Also $\mathrm{T}=\frac{2 \pi}{\omega}=\frac{2 \pi}{200}=\frac{\pi}{100}$
$\Rightarrow|\mathrm{e}|=\frac{600}{\pi}=190.9 \mathrm{V} \simeq 191 \mathrm{\,V}$

A transformer has $100\, turns$ in the primary coil and carries $8\,A$ current. If input power is one kilowatt, the number of turns in the secondary coil to have $500\,V$ output will be
Answerc
Power $=V . I$
$1000=500 I$
$(I)$ secondary $=2 \mathrm{A}$
Now $, \frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}}=\frac{N_{2}}{N_{1}} \Rightarrow \frac{8}{2}=\frac{N_{2}}{100}$
$\Rightarrow N_{2}=400$

An electric motor operating on a $60\,V \,dc$ supply draws a current of $10\,A$ . If the efficiency of the motor is $50\%$ , the resistance of its winding is....$\Omega $
Answera
Efficiency of motor is
$\eta=\frac{\text { output power }}{\text { input power }}=\frac{\text { input power }-\text { resistance loss }}{\text { input power }}$$=\frac{ W -I^{2} R }{ V }$
$\eta=\frac{(50 \times 12)-12^{2} R}{50 \times 12}$
$\therefore \frac{30}{100}=\frac{600-144 R}{600}$
$\therefore 0.3 \times 600=600-144 R$
$\therefore 180=600-144 R$
$\therefore R=\frac{600-180}{144}=2.92 \Omega$

A step down transformer converts transmission line voltage from $11000\, V$ to $220\, V$. The primary of the transformer has $6000\, turns$ and efficiency of the transformer is $60\%$. If the output power is $9\, kW$, then the input power will be........$kW$
Answerd
Here, $\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{P}}=11000 \mathrm{\,V}, \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{S}}=220 \mathrm{\,V}$
$\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{P}}=6000, \eta=60 \% ; \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{O}}=9 \mathrm{\,kW}=9 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{\,W}$
Efficiency, $\eta = \frac{{{\rm{ Output power }}}}{{{\rm{ Input power }}}} = \frac{{{{\rm{P}}_O}}}{{{{\rm{P}}_{\rm{i}}}}}$
$\therefore \mathrm{P}_{i}=\frac{\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{O}}}{\eta}=\frac{9 \times 10^{3}}{60 / 100}=1.5 \times 10^{4}=15 \mathrm{\,kW}$

A transformer is employed to reduce $220\, V$ to $11\, V$. The primary draws a current of $5\, A$ and the secondary $90\,A$. The efficiency of the transformer is......$\%$
Answerd
The efficiency of a transformer can be calculated using Equation,
Efficiency$=\frac{\text {Output} \text { power of the transformer}}{\text {Input power of the transformer}}=\frac{P_{s}}{P_{p}} \times 100$
In this case, the output power is calculated as follows.
The output voltage is $11 \mathrm{v}$ and current is $90 \mathrm{A}$
Power $=V I=11 \times 90=990 \mathrm{W}$
The input power is calculated as follows.
The input voltage is $220 \mathrm{V}$ and current is $5 \mathrm{A}$
Power $=V I=220 \times 5=1100 \mathrm{W}$
so, $\eta=\frac{990}{1100} \times 100=90 \%$
The efficiency of the transformer is $90 \%$

The figure shown has two coils of wires placed in close proximity. The current in primary coil $P$ is made to vary with time as shown in the graph, which of the following graphs best represents the variation of the emf induced in the secondary coil $S$ ?

Answerc
$e = - \frac{{Mdi}}{{dt}}$
$e \propto \frac{{di}}{{dt}}$
Here $di/dt$ represent the slope of $i-t$ curve. In the given $i-t$ graph, during the first half time the slope is constant and has positive value and in the next half time, the slope is again constant but has negative value. Hence the correct representation of the curve in $e-t$ graph is $(C)$.
