An AC ammeter is used to measure the current in a circuit. When a given direct current passes through the circuit, the ac ammeter reads 6 A. When another alternating current passes through the circuit, the AC ammeter reads 8 A. Then the reading of this ammeter if DC and AC flow through the circuit simultaneously is:
1. A
2. 14 A
3. 10 A
4. 15 A
In the diagram, two sinusoidal voltages of the same frequency are shown. What is the frequency and the phase relationship between the voltages?
| Frequency in Hz | Phase lead of N over M in radians | |
| 1. | 0.4 | –π/4 |
| 2. | 2.5 | –π/2 |
| 3. | 2.5 | +π/2 |
| 4. | 2.5 | –π/4 |
Alternating current cannot be measured by a D.C. ammeter because:
| 1. | A.C. cannot pass through D.C. Ammeter |
| 2. | A. C. changes direction |
| 3. | Average value of current for the complete cycle is zero |
| 4. | D.C. Ammeter will get damaged |
A direct current of \(5~ A\) is superimposed on an alternating current \(I=10sin ~\omega t\) flowing through a wire. The effective value of the resulting current will be:
| 1. | \(15/2~A\) | 2. | \(5 \sqrt{3}~A\) |
| 3. | \(5 \sqrt{5}~A\) | 4. | \(15~A\) |
In a heating arrangement, an alternating current having a peak value of \(28~\mathrm{A}\) is used. To produce the same heat energy, if direct current is used to produce the same amount of heat, then its magnitude will be:
| 1. | about \(14~\mathrm{A}\) | 2. | about \(28~\mathrm{A}\) |
| 3. | about \(20~\mathrm{A}\) | 4. | cannot say |
A generator produces a voltage that is given by V = 240 sin 120 t, where t is in seconds. The frequency and r.m.s. voltage are:
| 1. | 60 Hz and 240 V |
| 2. | 19 Hz and 120 V |
| 3. | 19 Hz and 170 V |
| 4. | 754 Hz and 70 V |
1. \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\left(i_1+i_2\right) \)
2. \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\left(i_i+i_2\right)^2 \)
3. \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\left(i_1^2+i_2^2\right)^{1 / 2} \)
4. \( \frac{1}{2}\left(i_1^2+i_2^2\right)^{1 / 2}\)
The peak value of an alternating e.m.f. is 10 volts and its frequency is 50 Hz. At a time \(t=\frac{1}{600}~s,\) the instantaneous value of the e.m.f. will be:
| 1. | 1 volt | 2. | \(5 \sqrt{3}\) volts |
| 3. | 5 volts | 4. | 10 volts |
The variation of the instantaneous current (I) and the instantaneous emf (E) in a circuit are shown in the figure. Which of the following statements is correct?
| 1. | The voltage lags behind the current by π/2. |
| 2. | The voltage leads the current by π/2. |
| 3. | The voltage and the current are in phase. |
| 4. | The voltage leads the current by π. |
