(a) 3
(b) 0
(c) 2
(d) 1

Q3. Which gate is used when an output is desired to be complement of the input?

(b) AND Gate
(c) XOR gate
(d) OR Gate

(a) 125 A
(b) 31.25 A
(c) 250 A
(d) 62.5 A

Q5. Which of the following is not a Maxwell’s equation?
(a) ∆×E= -∂B/∂t
(b) ∆.E= -B
(c) ∆.D=ρ
(d) ∆.B= 0

Q6. In a dynamometer type wattmeter, the pressure coil connected across the load terminal is
(a) Highly inductive
(b) Highly capacitive
(c) Highly resistive
(d) Non inductive

SOLUTIONS

S1. Ans.(c)
Sol. Number of strands for ‘n’ layers=3n^2-3n+1=3×3^2-(3×3)+1=19.

S2. Ans.(d)
Sol. The slip speed of an induction motor is defined as the difference between synchronous speed and rotor speed.
i.e., N_slip=N_S-N_r
stator magnetic field rotates at synchronous speed.
At standstill condition, N_r=0
∴required ratio=N_s/N_s =1.

S3. Ans.(a)
Sol. A NOT gate is a logic gate that inverts the digital input signal. For this reason, a NOT gate is sometimes is referred to as an inverter.

S4. Ans.(d)
Sol. I_total=P/V=(25×1000)/200=125 A
For WAVE wound: number of parallel paths=2
∴ the current in each parallel path=I_total/2=125/2=62.5 A

S5. Ans.(b)
Sol. Max well’s equations
(i) ∇. D ⃗=ρ or ∇. E = ρ/ϵ_o → Gauss law
(ii) ∇.B ⃗ = O → Gauss’ law of magnetism
(iii) ∇ × E = – ∂B/∂t = – B’ → Faraday’s law
(iv) ∇ × H = ∂D/∂t + J → Amperes circuital law

S6. Ans.(c)
Sol. In a dynamometer type wattmeter, the pressure coil connected across the load terminal is highly Resistive.
