Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 1

In an ac circuit, peak value of voltage is 423 volts. Its effective voltage is    

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 1

Effective voltage is also known as root mean square value of voltage of alternating current in an AC circuit.
we know, Erms=Epeak/ √2 
where Erms  denotes the rms voltage and Epeak peak voltage in an ac circuit.
here, peak voltage , Epeak =423 volts
so, effective voltage , Erms  =423/√2  ≈ 300 volts
hence, effective voltage is 300 volts
The correct answer is option C.

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 2

An ac circuit, the current is given by i = 4 sin (100pt + 30º) ampere. The current becomes maximum first time (after t = 0) at t equal to

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 2

i=4sin(100πt+ π/6)
For I to be maximum
di/dt=0
therefore,4x100π(cos(100πt+π/6)=0
therefore, ωs(100πt+ π/6)=0
for the first time cosθ=0 at π/2
⇒ 100πt+ π/6= π/2
⇒ 100πt= π/3
⇒ πt= π/300
T=1/300

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 11

Sinusoidal peak potential is 200 volt with frequency 50Hz. It is represented by the equation

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 11

Given peak potential is 200v
so, amplitude is 200
and frequency is 50Hz
so angular frequency is 2.πx50 = 314/sec
so the value is

Z= Z= √ (R2+(XL-XC)2)
  =√(12+(1000-1000)2)
Z=1W
    I=V/Z=100/1
I=1000A

A coil of inductance 0.1 H is connected to an alternating voltage generator of voltage E = 100 sin (100t) volt. The current flowing through the coil will be

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 16

L =0.14
E=100sin(100t)
⇒XL​=wL​=100×0.1
=10Ω
⇒io​=Eo/XL​=100/10​=10A
⇒i=io​sin(100t− π/2​)
⇒i=−io​sin[(π/2)​−100]
So we get
⇒i=−10cos(100t)A
therefore, option D is correct.

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 18

A coil has reactance of 100W when frequency is 50Hz. If the frequency becomes 150Hz, then the reactance will be

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 18

Given,
Reactance of a coil at 50 Hz, XL=100ohm
If frequency becomes 150 Hz, let the reactance be XL
As, XL= ωL
          =2πfL
XL=2π(50)L……(1)
              XL’=2π(150)L…….(2)
Dividing 2 by 1
XL’/XL=2π(150)L/2π(50)L
=>XL’/100=150/50
=>XL’=150x100/50
         =300ohm
   XL’=300ohm
Hence reactance of the coil when frequency at 150Hz is 300ohm, option (B).
 

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 19

A resistance of 50W, an inductance of 20/p henry and a capacitor of 5/p mF are connected in series with an A.C. source of 230 volt and 50Hz. The impedance of circuit is

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 19

Given, R=50W, L=(20/π)H and C=(5/π)mF
Voltage supply, V=230V.
v=50Hz
Since, XL= ω=2πvL=2πx50x(20/π)=XL=2000 Ω
And, XC= 1/ωC=1/2πvL=1/[2πx50x(5/π)x10-6]=(1000/500) x103
So, impedance, Z=√[(XL-XC)2+R2]
Z=√[(2000-2000)2+502]
Z=50Ω
Hence, Option B is correct.

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 20

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 20


V=ZI ->Impedance
I=V/Z
VR=IR=VR/Z=>R=(VR/V)Z
VL=IXL=VXL/Z=>XL=(VL/V)Z
Similarly, XL=(VC/V)Z
Impedance, Z2=R2+(XL-XC)2
=>Z2=(VR2/V2)Z2 +[{(VL/V)Z}-{(VC/V)Z}]2
V=√[VR2+(VL-VC)2 ]
On substituting, VL =3VR   , VC=2VR
=>V=√2 VR

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 21

The percentage increase in the impedance of an ac circuit, when its power factor changes form 0.866 to 0.5 is (Resistance constant)

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 21

Power factor (cosϕ)=R/Z1
For first case, power factor=0.866
Or, R/ Z1=0.866
Or,Z1=1.154R
For second case, power factor=>0.5
Cosϕ2=>R/Z2=>0.5, Z2=2R.
% increase=>[(Z2-Z1)/Z1] x100
So, [{(2R)-(1.154R)}/(1.154R)]x100=73.2%
So the correct answer is option A.

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 22

v0=1/2π√(LC)
⇒In this question,
L’=L+25% of L
=L+(L/4)=5L/4
And C’=C-20% of C
=C-(C/5)=4C/5
Hence, v0=1/2π√(L’C’)
=1/2π√[(5L/4) x (4C/5)]
=1/2π√(LC)=v0
The answer is option C, remains unchanged.

The impedance is independent of the frequency term.
On increasing the frequency, the impedance will remain unchanged.
The correct option is B.

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 28

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 28

First bulb= v=220v
P=500w
P1= (v2/R1)
R1= V2/P1= 220x200/500 ohms
For second bulb:
v=220 v
P=300W
R2= v2/p=220x200/300
By taking ratios:
R1:R2= 220x200x 300: 500 x220x200 = 3:5

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 29

Three bulbs of 40, 60 and 100 watt are connected in series with the source of 200 volt. Then which of the bulb will be glowing the most –

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 29


Resistance= (voltage)2/Power
Resistance of 40 W bulb= (200)2/40=1000 ohm
Resistance of 60 W bulb=(200)2/60=666.67 ohm
Resistance of 100 w bulb=(200)2/100=400 ohm
Total resistance= 1000+666.67+400=2066.67 ohm (addition because series circuit)
Now, we calculate current flowing in the bulbs (as we know this is series circuit so same current will flow in the circuit)
Current (I)= Voltage/total resistance=200/2066.67=0.0967 A
Now we find the power consumed by each bulb,
power consumed by 40 W bulb=I2R=(0.0967)2x1000=9.35 W
Power consumed by 60 W bulb=I2xR=(0.0967)2x666.67=6.23 W
Power consumed by 100 W bulb=I2R=(0.0967)2x400=3.74 W
From the above results, we can say that power consumed by a 40 W bulb is more as compared to other bulbs so 40 W glows brighter than other bulbs.
 

Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 30

Alternating current can not be measured by direct current meters, because –

Detailed Solution for Test: Alternating Current - 2 - Question 30

The alternating current changes its direction and magnitude, it becomes zero twice in a complete cycle. In one half cycle current flows in one direction and changes its direction for other half cycle. So, it is not possible by direct current meters to read such a high fluctuation in a second due to inertia and hence, no deflection accounted. Hence, alternating current can not be measured by direct current meters, because the average value of current for the complete cycle is zero.
