MCQ 1071 Mark
In a series $\text{RLC}$ circuit that is operating above the resonant frequency, the current.
  • lags the applied voltage
  • B
    leads the applied voltage
  • C
    is in phase with the applied voltage
  • D
    is zero
Answer
Correct option: A.
lags the applied voltage
Capacitive reactance is given by. $\text{X}_\text{C}=\frac{1}{\text{wC}}$
Inductive reactance is given by $\text{X}_\text{L}={\text{wL}}$
At resonance, $\text{X}_\text{L}={\text{X}_\text{C}}\Rightarrow \text{w}\text{L}=\frac{1}{\text{wC}}$
But a frequency higher than resonance frequency, $X_L>X_C$​
So the circuit behaves as a inductive circuit at a frequency higher that resonant frequency and the current lags behind the voltage in an inductive circuit.

The power loss is less in transmission lines, when:
  • A
    Voltage is less but current is more
  • B
    Both voltage and current are more
  • Voltage is more but current is less
  • D
    Both voltage and current are less
Answer
Correct option: C.
Voltage is more but current is less

The power cables have some resistance.
Power lost in the wires can be calculated as $P=I^2 R$ with $R$ as the resistance of the wires and $I$ as the current that passes through them.
Power at the load is $P = VI$.
From this one can see that if voltage is increased by say $n$ times, then only $\frac{1}{n}$ the current is required to deliver the same power. However, if $\frac{1}{ n }$ current is passed
on the same wires, only $\frac{1}{ n ^2}$ of the power will be lost.

  • A
    band$-$pass filter
  • B
    high$-$pass filter
  • low$-$pass filter
  • D
    band reject filter
Answer
Correct option: C.
low$-$pass filter
Given circuit is one simple low$-$pass filter circuit consists of a resistor in series with a load, and a capacitor in parallel with the load. The capacitor exhibits reactance, and blocks low$-$frequency signals, forcing them through the load instead. At higher frequencies the reactance drops, and the capacitor effectively functions as a short circuit.

The resonant frequency of an $L - C$ circuit is.
  • $\frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{\text{LC}}}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt\frac{\text{L}}{\text{C}}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{4\pi}\sqrt\frac{\text{L}}{\text{C}}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt\frac{\text{C}}{\text{L}}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{\text{LC}}}$

Resonance frequency f of an $L - C$ circuit can be written as
Resonance frequency $\text{f}=\frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{\text{LC}}}$ where $L =$ inductance and $C$ is capacitance.

In an $LCR$ circuit, capacitance is changed from $C$ to $2C$. For the resonant frequency to remain unchanged, the inductance should be changed from $L$ to:
  • A
    $4L$
  • B
    $2L$
  • $\frac{\text{L}}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{\text{L}}{4}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{\text{L}}{2}$

Resonant frequency, $\text{f}_\text{r}=\frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{\text{LC}}}$
As the frequency is unchanged so $f_r=f_r{ }^{\prime}$
$LC = L ^{\prime} C ^{\prime}= L ^{\prime}(2 C )$
$L =\frac{ L }{2}$

The simplest type of $AC$ voltage or current is the one which.
  • A
    Varies exponentially
  • Varies sinusoidally
  • C
    Varies linearly
  • D
    Does not vary uniformly
Answer
Correct option: B.
Varies sinusoidally

$AC$ voltage or current can be of any form, but the simplest type is a sine wave because any periodic wave can be represented as a combination of sine waves.

MCQ 1501 Mark
An alternating current is given by $\text{i}=\text{i}_1\cos\omega\text{t}+\text{i}_2\sin\omega\text{t}.$ The rms current is given by:
  • A
    $\frac{\text{i}_1+\text{i}_2}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{|\text{i}_1+\text{i}_2|}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • $\sqrt{\frac{\text{i}_1^2+\text{i}_2^2}{2}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{\text{i}_1^2+\text{i}_2^2}{\sqrt{2}}}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\sqrt{\frac{\text{i}_1^2+\text{i}_2^2}{2}}$
$\text{i}=\text{i}_1\cos\omega\text{t}+\text{i}_2\sin\omega\text{t}$
$\text{I}_\text{rms}=\frac{\int\limits_0^\text{T}\text{I}^2\text{dt}}{\int\limits_0^\text{T}\text{dt}}$
if $\text{I}=\cos\omega\text{t}$
$\text{I}_\text{rms}^2=\frac{\text{I}_0^2}{2}$
$\text{i}=\text{i}_1\cos\omega\text{t}+\text{i}_2\sin\omega\text{t}$
Than $\text{i}_\text{rms}^2=\frac{\text{i}_1^2}{2}+\frac{\text{i}_2^2}{2}$
$\text{i}_\text{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{\text{i}_1^2+\text{i}_2^2}{2}}$
