Question 1 |
A 0.1\mu F capacitor charged to 100 V is discharged through a 1 k\Omega resistor. The time in ms (round off to two decimal places) required for the voltage across the capacitor to drop to 1V is ______
0.25 | |
0.65 | |
0.45 | |
0.85 |
Question 1 Explanation:
\begin{aligned} v_c(t)&=V_0e^{-t/\tau } \\ V_0&=100V \\ \tau &=RC=(10^3)(10^{-7}) \\ &=10^{-4}sec \\ \therefore \;v_c(t)&=100e^{-10^4 t }V \end{aligned}
Let the time required by the voltage across the capacitor to drop to 1 V is t_1,
\begin{aligned} \therefore \; v_c(t_1)&=100e^{-10^4t_1} \\ \text{But, } v_c(t_1)&=0 \\ \text{So, }0&=100e^{-10^4t_1} \\ t_1&=0.46msec \end{aligned}

P_{1}=P_{2}=P_{3}=0 | |
P_{1} \lt 0,P_{2} \gt 0,P_{3} \gt 0 | |
P_{1} \lt 0,P_{2} \gt 0,P_{3} \lt 0 | |
P_{1} \gt 0,P_{2} \lt 0,P_{3} \gt 0 |
Question 3 Explanation:
V_2:\frac{\pi}{18}=\frac{180^{\circ}}{18}=10^{\circ}
V_3:\frac{\pi}{36}=\frac{180^{\circ}}{36}=5^{\circ}
V_2 leads V_1 and V_3,
So, V_2is a source, V_1 and V_3 are absorbing.
Hence, P_2 \gt 0 and P_1,P_3 \lt 0

The voltmeter, across the load, reads 200 V. The value of X_L is _____.
8.5 | |
17.3 | |
22.4 | |
28.6 |
Question 8 Explanation:
Given, total power dissipated in the circuit = 1kW =1000 Watt
\therefore \;\; 2^2 \times 1 +10^2 \times R=1000
R=\frac{998}{100}=9.98\Omega
Also, voltage drop across R,
V_R=IR
=10 \times 9.98=99.8 volt
Voltage drop across load,
V=200 volt =\sqrt{V_R^2+V_{X_L}^2}
\therefore voltage drop across inductor,
V_{X_L}=\sqrt{V^2-V_R^2}
\;\;=\sqrt{(200)^2-(99.8)^2}
\;\;=173.32 volt
Now, V_{X_L}=IX_L
X_L=\frac{V_{X_L}}{I}
X_L=\frac{173.32}{10}=17.332\Omega

\;\;=\left ( \frac{136}{11.11} \right )^2 \times 5
\;\;=749.1\approx 750W
R_L= 5\Omega
