Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Here,$C=7\times { 10 }^{ -11 }F$,
        $L=0.39\times { 10 }^{ -6 }H$

         ${ Z } _{ o }$ As the cable is lossless,
        $\therefore { Z } _{ o }\sqrt { \dfrac { L }{ C }  } =\sqrt { \dfrac { 0.39\times { 10 }^{ -6 } }{ 7\times { 10 }^{ -11 } }  } =75ohm$

A source of 220 V is applied in an A C circuit . The value of resistance is 220 $\Omega$. Frequency & inductance are 50Hz & 0.7 H then wattless current is 

introduction to induction electromagnetic induction electromagnetic induction and alternating currents physics

  1. 0.5 amp

  2. 0.7 amp

  3. 1.0 amp

  4. None

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A source= $220V$

The value of resistance= $220 \Omega$
Frequency= $50 Hz$
Inductance= $0.7H$
Find the wattless current= ?
Wattless component of current is $i=i _v\sin \theta$
                                                            $=\cfrac {Ev}{z}\sin \theta$
where, $z=$ impedance of $L-R$ circuit
                $=\sqrt {R^2+L^2W^2}$ so,
$i=\cfrac {220}{\sqrt {R^2+L^2+W^2}}\sin \theta$ from impedance triangle,
$\sin \theta= \cfrac {LW}{\sqrt {R^2+L^2W^2}}$
$\Rightarrow i=\cfrac {220}{\sqrt {R^2+L^2W^2}}\cfrac {LW}{\sqrt {R^2+L^2W^2}}$
        $=\cfrac {220}{R^2+L^2W^2}LW$
        $=\cfrac {220 \times 0.7 \times 2 \Pi \times 50}{(220)^2+(0.7\times 2\Pi \times 50)^2}$
        $=\cfrac {220 \times 220}{(220)^2+(220)^2}$
        $=0.5 A$ .

  1. $250 H$

  2. $50H$

  3. $150 H$

  4. $25 H$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

In LR circuit,

The time constant $\tau=\dfrac{L}{R}$
$10=\dfrac{L}{R}$
$L=10R$. . . . . . .(1)
When Resistance $100\Omega $ is connect in series, than the time constant is
$\tau'=\dfrac{L}{R+100}=2s$
$L=2R+200$. . . . . . .(2)
Equating equation (1 ) and (2), we get
$2R+200=10R$
$8R=200$
$R=25\Omega$
From equation (1),
$L=10R=10\times 25$
$L=250H$

the number of turn of primary and secondary coil of the transformer is 5 and 10 respectively ad the mutual inductance is 25 H. if the number f turns of the primary and secondary is made 10 and 5 , then the mutual inductance of the coils will be

  2. 12.5 H

  3. 25 H

  4. 50 H

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$M=\mu _o\mu _r \cfrac {N _1N _2}{l}A$

$M \propto N _1N _2$
Since $N _1N _2=10 \times 5= 5 \times 10=50$ in both cases.
Mutual inductance will remain same.

The coefficients of self induction of two inductance coils arc 0.0 1H and 0.03H respectively. When they are connected in series so as to support each other. then the resultant self inductance becomes 0.06 Henry. The value of coefficient of mutual induction will be-

  1. 0.02 H

  2. 0.05 H

  3. 0.01 H

  4. ZERO

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$L1=0.01$

$L2=0.03$
$L eff =0.06$

$Leff = L1+L2+2M$
$0.06=0.01+0.03+2M$
$2M = 0.06-0.03$
$M=0.03/2$
$=0.015$

In an induction coil, the coefficient of mutual induction is 4 henry. If a current of 5 ampere in 1  the primary coil is cut off in $\frac { 1 }{ 1500 } $s, the e.m.f at the terminals of the secondary coil will be:

  2. 60 kV

  3. 10 kV

  4. 30 kV

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

${\phi _{21}} = M.i,$

$ \Rightarrow v = \frac{{d{\phi _{21}}}}{{dt}} = M\frac{{di}}{{dt}}$
$ = 4 \times \frac{5}{{\left( {1/1500} \right)}}$
$ = 20 \times 1500$
$ = 30kv$
Hence,
option $(D)$ is correct answer.
