A. 0.052 H
B. 2.42 H
C. 16.2 mH
D. 1.62 mH

SOLUTION

Solution : A

Current through the bulb i=PV=6010=6A



V=V2R+V2L
(100)2=(10)2+V2L VL=99.5Volt
Also VL=iXL=i× (2π vL)
 99.5=6× 2× 3.14× 50× L L=0.052 H
 

Question 2

In the circuit given below, what will be the reading of the voltmeter

A. 300 V
B. 900 V
C. 200 V
D. 400 V

SOLUTION

Solution : C

V2=V2R+(VLVc)2

Since VL=Vc hence V=VR=200 V

Question 3

In the circuit shown below, what will be the readings of the voltmeter and ammeter 

A. 800 V, 2A
B. 220 V, 1.1A
C. 220 V, 2.2 A
D. 100 V, 2A

SOLUTION

Solution : B

V=V2R+(VLVc)2 VR=V = 220V

Also XL=Xc,  Since(VLVc) and current is same 
             
               Also i=220200=1.1A

Question 4

A bulb and a capacitor are connected in series to a source of alternating current. If its frequency is increased, while keeping the voltage of the source constant, then 

A. Bulb will give less intense light
B. Bulb will give more intense light
C. Bulb will give light of same intensity as before
D. Bulb will stop radiating light

SOLUTION

Solution : B

When a bulb and a capacitor are connected in series to an ac source, then on increasing the frequency the current in the circuit is increased, because the impedance of the circuit is decreased. So the bulb will give more intense light.

Question 5

An alternating e.m.f. of angular frequency is applied across an inductance. The instantaneous power developed in the circuit has an angular frequency 

A. ω4
B. ω2
C. ω
D. 2ω

SOLUTION

Solution : D

The instantaneous values of emf and current in inductive circuit are given by E=E0 sin ωt and i=i0 sin(ωtπ2)respectively.

So, Pinst=Ei=E0 sinωt× i0 sin(ωtπ2)
=E0i0 sin ωt(sin ωt cosπ2cos ωt sinπ2)
=E0i0 sin ωt cosωt
=12E0i0 sin 2ωt                   (sin 2ωt=2sin ωt cos ωt)
Hence, angular frequency of instantaneous power is 2ω.

Question 6

The voltage of an ac source varies with time according to the equation V = 200sin(100π t).cos(100π t) where  t is in seconds and V is in volts. Then

B. The peak voltage of the source is 50 volts
C. The peak voltage of the source is 1002 volts
D. The frequency of the source is 50 Hz

SOLUTION

Solution : A

V=100× 2sin 100π t cos 100 π t=100 sin 200π t
 V0=100 Volts and Frequency =100Hz

Question 7

In the circuit shown in the figure, the ac source gives a voltage V = 24cos(2000t). Neglecting source resistance, the voltmeter and ammeter reading will be 

A. 0V, 0.47A
B. 1.68V, 0.47A
C. 8.46V, 1.4 A
D. 5.6V, 1.4 A

SOLUTION

Solution : C

Z=(R)2+(XLXc)2

R=12Ω,XL=wL=2000× 5× 103=10Ω

Xc=1wC=12000× 50× 106=10Ω i.e.Z = 10Ω

Maximum current i0=V0Z=2412=2A

Hence irms=22=1.4A

and Vrms=6× 1.41=8.46 V

A. 0.35 mH
B. 35 mH
C. 1.4 mH
D. Zero

SOLUTION

Solution : C

Capacitance of wire 
C=0.014× 106× 200=2.8× 106F=2.8μF
For impedance of the circuit to be minimum XL=Xc 2π vL=12π vC

 L=14π2v2C=14(3.14)2× (2.5× 103)2× 2.8× 106
=1.4× 103H = 1.4mH

C. 1. (ii), 2. (iii), 3. (i)
D. 1. (ii), 2. (ii), 3. (i)

SOLUTION

Solution : C

1. rms   values=x02

2. x0sin ωt cosωt=x02sin2ωt rms value = x022

3. x0sin ωt+x0cosωtrms value = (x02)2+(x02)2

=x20=x0

Question 11

The reading of ammeter in the circuit shown will be 

A. 2A
B. 2.4 A
C. Zero
D. 1.7 A

SOLUTION

Solution : A

Given XL=XC=5Ω  this is the condition of resonance. Since VL=VC net voltage across L and C combination will be zero.

Voltage drop across the resistance = 110v. Thus current flowing though Ammeter reading =110v55=2A.

Question 12

An ac source of angular frequency ω is fed across a resistor r and a capacitor C in series. The current registered is I.

At angular frequency ω, the current in RC circuit is given by

irms=VrmsR2+(1ωC)2       .......(i)

Also irms2=Vrms R2+(1ω4c)2=VrmsR2+16ω2C2    ......(ii)

From equation (i) and (ii) we get

3R2=12ω2C2 1ωCR=312 XcR=312

Question 13
