A Correct answer
Explanation

If circular coil with N1 turns is changed in to a coil of N2 turns. 

$L=\dfrac{Nd \phi}{dt} $
$L _1=\dfrac{N _1d \phi}{dt} $
$L _2=\dfrac{N _2d \phi}{dt} $ 
 L is in Henries
        N is the Number of Turns
        Φ is the Magnetic Flux
        Ι  is in Amperes
$\dfrac{L _1}{L _2}=\dfrac{N _1}{N _2} $

If the number of turns per unit length of a coil of a solenoid is doubled the self-inductance of the solenoid will:

  1. remain unchanged

  2. be halved

  3. be doubled

  4. become four times

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

The self-inductance of a solenoid is proportional to the square of the number of turns per unit length (L is proportional to n^2). If n is doubled, L becomes 2^2 = 4 times the original value.

  1. Weber/ampere

  2. Volt-second / ampere

  3. $Joule / (ampere)^2$
  4. Ohm-second

Explanation

$L=\cfrac{\phi}{i}$

$L=\cfrac{weber}{Ampere}$
$V=L\cfrac{Ldi}{dt}$
$L\to$ volt.second/ampere
$E=\cfrac{1}{2}Li^2$
$L\to $joule/(ampere$)^2$
$\omega L=X _L$
$L\to$ohm.second

  2. 75

  3. 66

  4. 77

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
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 

  1. 0.5 amp

  2. 0.7 amp

  3. 1.0 amp

  4. None

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
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,
$\sin \theta= \cfrac {LW}{\sqrt {R^2+L^2W^2}}$
$\Rightarrow i=\cfrac {220}{\sqrt {R^2+L^2W^2}}\cfrac {LW}{\sqrt {R^2+L^2W^2}}$
        $=\cfrac {220}{R^2+L^2W^2}LW$
        $=\cfrac {220 \times 0.7 \times 2 \Pi \times 50}{(220)^2+(0.7\times 2\Pi \times 50)^2}$
        $=\cfrac {220 \times 220}{(220)^2+(220)^2}$
        $=0.5 A$ .

The time constant of a circuit is 10 sec, When a resistance of $ 100 \Omega $ is connected in series in a previous circuit then time constant becomes 2 second,then the self inductance of the circuit is;-

  1. $250 H$
  2. $50H$
  3. $150 H$
  4. $25 H$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
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),
$L=10R=10\times 25$
$L=250H$

D Correct answer
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.

$L1=0.01$

$L2=0.03$
$L eff =0.06$

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

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:

  1. 15 kV

  2. 60 kV

  3. 10 kV

  4. 30 kV

D Correct answer
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.
