Answer» Correct Answer - 2
Definition of rms current, `I_("rms") = sqrt((int_(0)^(T) l^(2) dt)/(int_(0)^(T) dt))`
If `l = l_(0) sin omega t` then `I_("rms") = sqrt((1)/(T) int_(0)^(t) l^(2) dt)`,
`l_("rms") = sqrt((1)/(T) int_(0)^(T) sin omega t dt) = (l_(0))/(sqrt(2))`
So both statements are ture but statement-2 is not correct explanation of statement-1

At an airport, a person is made to walk through the door way of a metal detector, for security reasons. If `she//he` is carrying anything made of metal, the metal detector emits a sound. On what principle does this detector work ?

Answer» The metal detector works on the principle of resonance in ac circuits. When you walk through a metal detector, you are, in fact, walking through a coil of many turns. The coil is connected to a capacitor tuned so that the circuit is in resonance. When you walk through with metal in your pocket, the impedance of the circuit changes – resulting in significant change in current in the circuit. This change in current is detected and the electronic circuitry causes a sound to be emitted as an alarm.

Answer» Correct Answer - 1,2,3
Instantaneous electrical energy
`U_(E) = (q_(0)^(2) cos^(2) omega t)/(2C)`
At `omega t = 0, pi, 2 pi, 3 pi`….. The energy is completely electrical.
`t = (2 pi)/(2 pi f) = (n)/(2 f) = (n pi)/(1000)` sec , `n = 1, 2, 3, 4`
or `t = 0, T//2, 3T//2`....
Instantaneous magnetic energy
`U_(B) = (1)/(2) Lq_(0)^(2) omega^(2) sin^(2) omega t` or `U_(B) = (q_(0)^(2))/(2C) sin^(2) omega t`
So, at `omega t = pi//2, 3 pi//2, 5pi //2`
The energy is completely magnetic
`t = ((2n + 1) pi)/(2(2pi f)) = ((2n + 1))/(4f) = ((2n + 1))/(2000) sec`
Where `n = 0,1,2,3,4`......
or `t = T//4, 3T//4, 5T//4`.......
Timings for energy shared equally between inductor and capacitor.
`U_(B) = U_(E)`
`(q_(0)^(2))/(2C ) sin^(2) omega t = (q_(0)^(2))/(2C) cos^(2) omega t`
`tan^(2) omega t = 1` or `tan omega t = tan pi//4`
`t = (pi)/(4 omega), (3 pi)/(4 omega),(5 pi)/(4 omega)`,............or `t = (T)/(8), (3T)/(8), (5T)/(8)`............

An LC circuit contains a 20 mH inductor and a `50 mu F` capacitor with an initial charge of 10 mC. The resistance of the circuit is negligible. Let the instant at which the circuit which is closed be t=0. At what time the energy stored is completely magnetic ?A. 3AB. t=0C. `t=1.54 ms`D. `t=3.14ms`

Answer» For L-C , oscillator , T = `2pi sqrt LC`
From one extreme to another when electric field is maximum magnetic field is zero. When electric field is zero, magnetic field is maximum.
At time` t = T/4`, energy stored is completely magnetic
`therefore` Time, `t = T / 4 = 2pi sqrt LC/4`
`implies t = pi sqrt( 20 xx 10^(-3) xx 50 xx 10^(-6)) / 2 = pisqrt (1 xx 10^(-6))/ 2`
`implies` t = 1.57 ms

An alternating voltage (in volts) given by `V=200sqrt(2)sin(100t)` is connected to `1 mu F` capacitor through an ideal ac ammeter in series. The reading of the ammeter and the average power consumed in the circuit shall beA. 20 mA, 0B. 20 mA, 4WC. `20sqrt(2)mA, 8W`D. `20sqrt(2)mA, 4sqrt(2)W`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
On comparing `V = 200sqrt(2)sin(100 t)` with
`V = V_(0)sin omega t`, we get
`V_(0)=200sqrt(2) V, omega = 100" rad " s^(-1)`
`therefore V_("rms")=(V_(0))/(sqrt(2))=(200sqrt(2)V)/(sqrt(2))=200 V`
The capacitive reactance is
`X_(C )=(1)/(omega C)=(1)/(100xx1xx10^(-6))=10^(4)Omega`
ac ammeter reads teh rms value of current. Therefore, the reading of the ammeter is
`I_("rms")=(V_("rms"))/(X_(C ))=(200 V)/(10^(4)Omega)=20xx10^(-3)A=20 mA`
The average power consumedin the circuit,
`P = I_("rms")V_("rms")cos phi`
In an pure capacitive circuit, the phase difference between current and voltage is `(pi)/(2)`.
`therefore cos phi = 0 therefore P = 0`

There is a `5 Omega` resistance in an `AC`, circuit. Impedence of `0.1 H` is connected with it in series. If equation of `AC` emf is `5 sin 50 t` then the phase difference between current and e.m.f. isA. `(pi)/2`B. `(pi)/6`C. `(pi)/4`D. `0`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`cos varphi=R/Z=R/(sqrt(R^(2)+omega^(2)L^(2)))=5/(sqrt(25+(50)^(2)xx(0.1)^(2)))`
`=5/(sqrt(25+25))=1/(sqrt(2)) implies varphi=pi//4`

Figure shows an iron-cored transformer assumed to be 100% efficient. The ratio of the secondaty turns to the primary turns is 1:20. A 240 V ac supply is connected to the primary coil and a `6 Omega` resistor is connected to the secondary coil. What is the current in the primary coil?A. 0.10AB. 0.14AC. 2AD. 40A

Answer» Correct Answer - A
the equivlent primary load is
`(R_1)=((N_1)/(N_2))^(2) (R_2)=((20)/(1)^(2)) (6.0)=2400 Omega`
Current in the primary coil
`=(240)/(R_1) =(240)/(2400)=0.1 A`
