Test: Dot Convention in Magnetically Coupled Circuits - Question 1

A series RLC circuit has a resonance frequency of 1 kHz and a quality factor Q = 100. If each of R, L and C is doubled from its original value, the new Q of the circuit is _____________

Detailed Solution: Question 1

Q = f0 / BW
And f0 = 1/2π (LC)0.5
BW = R/L
or, Q = 1R(L/C)0.5
When R, L and C are doubled, Q’ = 50.

The switch in the circuit shown was on position X for a long time. The switch is then moved to position Y at time t=0. The current I(t) for t > 0 is ________

Detailed Solution: Question 2

VC (t = 0) = 100 V
At t ≥ 0,
The discharging current 

= 0.2e-1250tu(t) mA.

Test: Dot Convention in Magnetically Coupled Circuits - Question 3

In the circuit shown below the current I(t) for t≥0+ (assuming zero initial conditions) is ___________

Detailed Solution: Question 3

I (t) = 1.5 / 3 = 0.5
LEQ = 15 mH
REQ = 5+10 = 15Ω

I (t) A – (A – B) e-t = 0.5 – (0.5-B) e-1000t
= 0.5(0.5 – 0.375) e-1000t
= 0.5 – 0.125 e-1000t
I (t) = 0.5-0.125e-1000t.

Test: Dot Convention in Magnetically Coupled Circuits - Question 4

For a unit step signal u (t), the response is V1 (t) = (1-e-3t) for t>0. If a signal 3u (t) + δ(t) is applied, the response will be (considering zero initial conditions)?

Detailed Solution: Question 4

For u (t) = 1, t > 0
V1 (t) = (1 - e-3t)

or, 

Ans, 

Now, for 

Response, H(s) = R(s)

Or, h (t) = 3 u (t).

Test: Dot Convention in Magnetically Coupled Circuits - Question 5

An ideal capacitor is charged to a voltage VO and connected at t=0 across an ideal inductor L. If ω = 1 / √LC, the voltage across the capacitor at time t > 0 is ________

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Voltage across capacitor will discharge through inductor up to voltage across the capacitor becomes zero. Now, inductor will start charging capacitor.
Voltage across capacitor will be decreasing from VO and periodic and is not decaying since both L and C is ideal.
∴ Voltage across the capacitor at time t > 0 is VO cos(ωt).

In the circuit given below, the capacitor initially has a charge of 10 C. The current in the circuit at t = 1 sec after the switch S is closed will be ___________

Detailed Solution: Question 6

Using KVL, 

or, 

Now, 

Or, 100C – q = (100C – qo) e-t/RC

= 40e-1 = 14.7 A.

Test: Dot Convention in Magnetically Coupled Circuits - Question 7

A rectangular voltage wave of magnitude A and duration B is applied to a series combination of resistance R and capacitance C. The voltage developed across the capacitor is ____________

Detailed Solution: Question 7

Hence, maximum voltage =
V [1 – exp (-B/RC)].

Test: Dot Convention in Magnetically Coupled Circuits - Question 8

In the circuit given below, the input impedance ZIN of the circuit is _________

Detailed Solution: Question 8

ZIN = (-6j) || (ZA)

= 0.49 + j5.82

= 64.73 + j17.77 Ω.

Test: Dot Convention in Magnetically Coupled Circuits - Question 9

In the circuit shown, the voltage source supplies power which is _____________

Detailed Solution: Question 9

Let the current supplied by a voltage source.
Applying KVL in outer loop,
10 – (I + 3) × (I + 1) – (I + 2) × 2 = 0
10 – 2(I + 3) – 2(I - 2) = 0
Or, I = 0
∴ Power VI = 0.

Initial voltage on capacitor VO as marked |VO| = 5 V, VS = 8 u (t), where u (t) is the unit step. The voltage marked V at t=0+ is _____________

Detailed Solution: Question 10

Applying voltage divider method, we get,

And,  

Now, 

Hence, the net current in 1Ω resistance = I1 + I′1

∴ Voltage drop across 1Ω = 13/3×1
= 13/3 V.
