Understanding Star and Delta Connections
In electrical engineering, star (Y) and delta (Δ) connections are two fundamental configurations used to connect three-phase systems. The relationship between resistances in these configurations is critical for circuit analysis.
Star Configuration
- In a star connection, each branch has a resistance of 3 Ω.
- The total resistance between any two phases in a star connection can be calculated using the formula: R_Y = R_phase.
Delta Configuration
- In a delta connection, the resistance is calculated differently. The resistances in the delta configuration are related by the formula: R_Δ = 3 * R_Y.
Calculating Delta Resistance
- Given: R_Y = 3 Ω (each branch in star).
- To find R_Δ:
R_Δ = 3 * R_Y
R_Δ = 3 * 3 Ω
R_Δ = 9 Ω
This indicates that each branch in the delta connection will be 9 Ω.
Conclusion
Thus, when each branch of a star connection has a resistance of 3 Ω, the corresponding resistance in the delta connection will indeed be 9 Ω. The correct answer is option 'C', which is 9 Ω. This relationship is crucial for engineers when converting between these two types of connections in three-phase systems.

An ion is a particle or collection of particles with a net positive or negative charge.
An atom is the basic unit of an element. The identity of an element is determined by the number of positively charged protons in the atom’s nucleus. A stable atom contains the same number of electrons as protons and no net charge.

Prasad Verma answered |
Explanation:
Difference between Electrical Network and Electrical Circuit:
- Electrical network and electrical circuit are different:
- An electrical network is a collection of interconnected components (such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors) where each component is represented by a node and the connections between components are represented by branches.
- An electrical circuit, on the other hand, is a closed loop path that contains a power source and various components connected in a specific way to perform a specific function.
- Every electrical circuit is a network, but all networks are not circuits:
- Every electrical circuit is essentially an electrical network because it consists of interconnected components.
- However, not all networks can be considered circuits as they may not form a closed loop path or may not have a power source to perform a specific function.
- Examples:
- A simple series circuit with a battery, resistor, and connecting wires is both an electrical circuit and an electrical network.
- A complex network of interconnected components without a closed loop path or power source may be considered an electrical network but not a circuit.
In conclusion, while every electrical circuit is a network due to its interconnected components, not all networks can be classified as circuits as they may lack the necessary elements to form a complete functional loop.

All the four branches are connected in parallel, so the voltage across every branch is same. If one of the branch is open, it doesn’t affect the other branches current. Because the voltage and impedance across remaining branches will remain same.

Sakshi Roy answered |
Given data:
- Power of the filament lamp (P) = 40 W
- Voltage across the lamp (V) = 110 V
- Supply voltage (Vs) = 230 V
Calculating resistance of the filament lamp:
Using the formula P = V^2 / R, we can calculate the resistance of the filament lamp:
R = V^2 / P
R = (110)^2 / 40
R = 302.5 ohm
Calculating the resistance in series with the lamp:
Let the resistance in series with the lamp be R.
Total voltage across the circuit = Voltage across lamp + Voltage across R
Vs = V + V_R
230 = 110 + 110 + R
R = 230 - 220
R = 330 ohm
Therefore, the value of resistance R should be 330 ohm to be connected in series with the filament lamp.

Parallel RLC Circuit and Bandwidth
A parallel RLC circuit consists of a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C) connected in parallel. This type of circuit is commonly used in various electrical systems and applications. One of the important characteristics of a parallel RLC circuit is its bandwidth, which refers to the range of frequencies over which the circuit operates effectively.
Bandwidth and Resistance (Option A)
When the resistance (R) in a parallel RLC circuit is increased, it affects the circuit's bandwidth. The bandwidth is defined as the difference between the upper and lower cutoff frequencies, where the circuit's response decreases by a specified amount (usually -3 dB). As the resistance increases, the circuit becomes more damped, resulting in a decrease in the bandwidth. Therefore, option A is correct.
Bandwidth and Inductance (Option B)
Increasing the inductance (L) in a parallel RLC circuit does not affect the circuit's bandwidth. The bandwidth is primarily determined by the resistance and capacitance values in the circuit. The inductance affects the resonant frequency but does not directly impact the bandwidth. Therefore, option B is incorrect.
Input Impedance and Resonance (Option C)
At resonance, the input impedance of a parallel RLC circuit becomes a real quantity. Resonance occurs when the inductive reactance (XL) is equal to the capacitive reactance (XC). At this frequency, the imaginary components cancel each other out, resulting in a purely resistive impedance. Therefore, option C is correct.
Input Impedance at Resonance (Option D)
Option D states that at resonance, the magnitude of the input impedance attains its minimum value. This statement is incorrect. At resonance, the magnitude of the input impedance in a parallel RLC circuit is at its maximum value, not minimum. The impedance is purely resistive at resonance, and its magnitude is determined by the resistance value. Therefore, option D is incorrect.
Conclusion
In summary, option D is the incorrect statement regarding a parallel RLC circuit. At resonance, the magnitude of the input impedance is at its maximum value, not minimum. The correct statements are:
- The bandwidth of the circuit decreases if the resistance is increased.
- The bandwidth of the circuit remains the same if the inductance is increased.
- At resonance, the input impedance is a real quantity.

The internal resistance of an ideal voltage source should be zero and practically it is very low.
Given that, source resistance is 1 ohm
Hence the source will be a voltage source

Given data:
Frequency of ac voltage = 50 Hz
Peak amplitude = 100 V
Required voltage = 86.6 V
Calculation:
The ac voltage can be represented by the equation:
V(t) = V_m * sin(ωt)
Where:
V(t) = instantaneous voltage at time t
V_m = peak amplitude of the voltage
ω = angular frequency = 2πf
t = time
In this case, V_m = 100 V and f = 50 Hz, so ω = 2π * 50 = 100π rad/s.
We need to find the time at which the voltage attains the value of 86.6 V.
So, we can set up the equation:
86.6 = 100 * sin(100πt)
To solve this equation, we can rearrange it as:
sin(100πt) = 0.866
Using the inverse sine function, we can find the time:
sin^(-1)(sin(100πt)) = sin^(-1)(0.866)
100πt = sin^(-1)(0.866)
t = (sin^(-1)(0.866)) / (100π)
Now, we can calculate the value of t using a calculator:
t ≈ 0.01 seconds
Therefore, the voltage will attain the value of 86.6 V after approximately 0.01 seconds.
Answer:
The correct option is (A) 1/300 second.
Frequency of ac voltage = 50 Hz
Peak amplitude = 100 V
Required voltage = 86.6 V
Calculation:
The ac voltage can be represented by the equation:
V(t) = V_m * sin(ωt)
Where:
V(t) = instantaneous voltage at time t
V_m = peak amplitude of the voltage
ω = angular frequency = 2πf
t = time
In this case, V_m = 100 V and f = 50 Hz, so ω = 2π * 50 = 100π rad/s.
We need to find the time at which the voltage attains the value of 86.6 V.
So, we can set up the equation:
86.6 = 100 * sin(100πt)
To solve this equation, we can rearrange it as:
sin(100πt) = 0.866
Using the inverse sine function, we can find the time:
sin^(-1)(sin(100πt)) = sin^(-1)(0.866)
100πt = sin^(-1)(0.866)
t = (sin^(-1)(0.866)) / (100π)
Now, we can calculate the value of t using a calculator:
t ≈ 0.01 seconds
Therefore, the voltage will attain the value of 86.6 V after approximately 0.01 seconds.
Answer:
The correct option is (A) 1/300 second.

Given that, voltage source supplies 24 W
By applying KVL,
- 24 + I1 R1 + I2 R2 = 0
⇒ I2 R2 = 24 – R1 → (1)
Given that, current source supplies 6 W
By KVL in second loop
I2 R2 = 6 → (2)
From (1) and (2)
⇒ R1 = 18 Ω
By KCL at point ‘O’
⇒ I2 = 1 + I1 = 2 A
We know that, I2 R2 = 6
