Key concept: Equation for i and $V$: Alternating current or voltage varying as sine function can be written as
$\text{i}=\text{i}_0\ \sin\omega\text{t}=\text{i}_0\ \sin2\pi\text{v t}=\text{i}_0\sin\frac{2\pi}{\text{T}}\text{t}$

and $\text{V}=\text{V}_0\ \sin\omega\text{t}=\text{V}_0\ \sin2\pi\text{v t}=\text{V}_0\sin\frac{2\pi}{\text{T}}\text{t}$
where $i$ and $V$ are instantaneous values of current and voltage,
$i _0$ and $V _0$ are peak values of current and voltage
$\omega =$ Angular frequency in $\frac{\text{red}}{\text{sec}}, v =$ Frequency in $Hz$ and $T =$ time period
Accoeding to the problem, $f = 50Hz, I = 5A$
$\text{t}=\frac{\text{I}}{300}\text{s}$
$\text{I}_0=\text{Peak value}=\sqrt{2}(\text{I}_\text{rms})=5\sqrt{2}$

The given $\text{LCR}$ circuit is in resonance. Inductive reactance magnitude $\text{XL}$​ increases as frequency increases while capacitive reactance magnitude $\text{XC}$​ decreases with the increase in frequency.
At one particular frequency, these two reactances are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign; that frequency is called the resonant frequency fO​ for the given circuit. Hence, at resonance:
$\text{XL ​= XC​}$
So the voltage across rthe unknown inductor is $200V$ as same as the voltage across the capacitor.

An $\text{LCR}$ circuit has L = 10 mH, $\text{R}=3\Omega$ and $\text{C}=1\mu\text{ F}$ connected in series to a source of $15\cos\omega\text{t}$ volt. The current amplitude at a frequency that is $10\%$ lower than the resonant frequency is:
  • A
    $0.5A$
  • $0.7A$
  • C
    $0.9A$
  • D
    $1.1A$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$0.7A$

Resonant frequency, $\text{w}_\text{o}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{LC}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{(10\times10^{-3})(10^{-6})}}=\frac{10^4\text{rad}}{\text{s}}$
New frequency $\omega=(0.9)\omega_\text{o}=9\times\frac{10^3\text{rad}}{\text{s}}$
We have new $\text{X}_\text{L}=\omega\text{L}=9\times10^3\times10\times10^{-3}=90\Omega\text{ and}\text{ X}_\text{C}=\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}=111.11\text{ohm.}$
Thus we calculate new $Z$ as
$\sqrt{3^2+[90-111.11]^2}$
$=21.32\Omega$
Current amplitude $=\frac{\text{V}_\text{o}}{\text{Z}}=\frac{15}{21.32}=0.7\text{A}$

A resistor and a capacitor are in series across a $20V$ ac source. Circuit impedance is $4.33\text{k}\Omega$ Current flow in the circuit is.
  • A
    $9.2mA$
  • B
    $92mA$
  • $4.6mA$
  • D
    $460mA$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$4.6mA$

Voltage of the source $V = 20$ volts
$\text{Z}=4.33\text{k}\Omega=4.33\times10^3\Omega$
Thus current in the circuit $\text{I}=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{Z}}$
$\therefore\text{I}=\frac{20}{4.33\times10^3}=4.6\times10^{-3}\text{A}$
$\Rightarrow\text{I}=4.6\text{mA}$

A mixer of $100\Omega$ resistance is connected to an $A.C.$ source of $200V$ and $50$ cycles $/\sec$. The value of average potential difference across the mixer will be:
  • A
    $308 V$
  • B
    $264 V$
  • C
    $220 V$
  • zero
Answer
Correct option: D.
zero

We need to find the average potential difference across the mixer. Here by average we mean average over a long period of time. As we know in one complete cycle, average voltage across the mixer is zero. $($In one complete cycle current changes the direction and net voltage across a resistor is zero$).$
So when in one complete cycle voltage drop across the resistor is zero, then the average voltage drop across the resistor $($mixer$)$ is zero.

  2. The driving force can give no energy to the oscillator $(P = 0)$ in some cases.
  3. The driving force cannot syphon out $(P < 0)$ the energy out of oscillator.
Solution:
Key Concept: Power Factor.
  1. It may be defined as cosine of the angle of lag of lead $($i.e., $\cos\phi).$
  2. It is also defined as the radio of resistance and impedange $\Big(\text{i.e.,} \frac{\text{R}}{\text{Z}}\Big)$.
  3. $\text{The radio}=\frac{\text{True power}}{\text{Apparent power}}=\frac{\text{W}}{\text{VA}}=\frac{\text{kW}}{\text{kVA}}=\cos\phi$
In the given problem power transferred,
$\text{P}=\text{I}^2\text{Z}\cos\phi$
where I is the current, $Z =$ Impedance and $\cos\phi$ is power factor
  1. As power factor, $\cos\phi=\frac{\text{R}}{\text{Z}}$
where $R > 0$ and $Z > 0$
$\Rightarrow\ \cos\phi>0\Rightarrow\ \text{P}>0$
  1. When $\phi=\frac{\pi}{2} ($in case of $L $ of $C), P = 0.$
  2. From $(a)$, it is clear that $P < 0$ is not possible.

If in a series $L-C$ - $R$ ac circuit, the voltages across $L, C$ and $R$ are $V_1, V_2$ and $V_3$ respectively, then the voltage of the source is always.
  • A
    equal to $V_1+V_2+V_3$

    equal to $V_1-V_2+V_3$
  • C
    more than $V _1+ V _2+ V _3$
  • none of the above is true
Answer
Correct option: D.
none of the above is true

The voltages across different elements in $A C$ circuit add vectorially.
The voltages across inductor and capacitor are out of phase and at $90^{\circ}$ to that across resistor.
Hence net voltage across source $=\sqrt{\left( V _1- V _2\right)+ V _3^2}$.

A coil of self$-$inductance $L$ is connected in series with a bulb $B$ and an $AC$ source. Brightness of the bulb decreases when.
  • A
    Frequency of the $AC$ source is decreased
  • B
    Number of turns in the coil is reduced
  • C
    A capacitance of reactance $X_C=X_L$​ is included in the same circuit
  • An iron rod is inserted in the coil
Answer
Correct option: D.
An iron rod is inserted in the coil

As the iron rod is inserted, the magnetic field inside the coil magnetizes the iron increasing the magnetic field inside it. Hence. the inductance of the coil increases. Consequently, the inductive reactance of the coil increases. As a result, a larger fraction of the applied $AC$ voltage appears across the lnductor, leaving less voltage across the bulb.Therefore' the brightness of the light bulb decreases.

  • Combination of inductance and capacitance at resonance
  • D
    None of the above
Answer
Correct option: C.
Combination of inductance and capacitance at resonance

Since the voltage across the resistive element is same as the voltage applied, the voltage drop across $BC$ is zero. This is possible only when the ohmic value of the element connected across $BC$ is zero. So, $X$ should be combination of inductance and capacitance at resonance.

$200V$

General sinusoidal voltage variation is given by:
$\text{V}=\text{V}_0\sin(\omega\text{t})$
Here, in this equation $V_0$​ is peak voltage.
So, on comparing both equation we get:

In an $LCR$ circuit as shown below both switches are open initially. Now switch $S_1$ is closed, $S_2$ kept open. $( q$ is charge on the capacitor and $\tau= RC$ is capacitive time constant$)$. Which of the following statement is correct?
Image
  • A
    $\text{At t}=\tau,\text{q}=\frac{\text{CV}}{2}$
  • $\text{At t}=2\tau,\text{q}={\text{CV}}(1-\text{e}^{-2})$
  • C
    $\text{At t}=\frac{\text{T}}{2},\text{q}={\text{CV}}(1-\text{e}^{-1})$
  • D
    Work done by the battery is half of the energy dissipated in the resistor.
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\text{At t}=2\tau,\text{q}={\text{CV}}(1-\text{e}^{-2})$

Charge on the capacitor at any time $`t'$ is
$\text{q}=\text{CV}(1-\text{e}\frac{-\text{t}}{\tau})$
$\text{at }\text{t}=2\tau$
$\text{q}=\text{CV}(1-\text{e}^{-2})$

A $6kHz$ sinusoidal voltage is applied to a series $RC$ circuit. The frequency of the voltage across the resistor is.
  • A
    $0Hz$
  • B
    $12kHz$
  • $6kHz$
  • D
    $18kHz$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$6kHz$

Frequency of applied voltage and voltage or current accross any component are same. As we know,
$\text{I}=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{Z}}$ and $Z$ has nothing to do with frequency
$\Rightarrow \text{IandV}$ have same frequency.
And also according to $KVL V = V _1+ V _2+ V _3$
$\Rightarrow $ voltage and current across any component have same frequency i.e $6kHz.$
