200 V ac source is fed to series LCR circuit having `X_(L)=50 Omega, X_(C )=50 Omega` and `R = 25 Omega`. Potential drop across the inductor isA. 100 VB. 200 VC. 400 VD. 10 V

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Here, `V_("rms")=200 V, X_(L) = 50 Omega, X_(C )= 50 Omega, R=25 Omega` Impedance of the circuit,
`Z=sqrt(R^(2)+(X_(L)-X_(C ))^(2))=sqrt(25^(2)+(50-50)^(2))=25 Omega`
Current in the circuit, `I_("rms")=(V_("rms"))/(Z)=(200 V)/(25 Omega)=8 A`
Voltage drop across the inductor is
`V_(L)=I_("rms")X_(L)=8 Axx50 Omega = 400 V`

Initial voltage and input power of a transformer of effieciency `80%` are 100 V and 4 kW, respectively. IF the voltage of the secondary coil is 200 V, determine the currents flowing through the primary and the second ary coils?

Answer» Power of the primary coil i.e., input power,
`P_p=V_pI_p`
or,`I_p=P_p/V_p=(4times1000)/100=40 A`
Power of the secondary coil , `P_s=P_ptimes80/100`,
Again, `P_s=V_sI_s`
So, `I_s=P_s/V_s=80/100timesP_p/V_s=80/100times(4times1000)/200=16 A`.

In an oscillating LC circuit the maximum charge on the capacitor is Q. When the charge is stored equally between the electric and magnetic fields, what is the charge on the capacitor?

Answer» Maximum charge of the capacitor= Q
So total energy of the circuit `=1/2Q^2/C`
When the charge of the capacitor is q, then energy stored in the electric fields is `1/2q^2/C`.At this stage energy stored in the magnetic field is `1/2Li^2`.
If it is equal to `1/2q^2/C`, then total energy
`=1/2q^2/C+1/2Li^2=1/2q^2/C+1/2q^2/C=q^2/C`
So, `q^2/C=1/2Q^2/C`or,`q^2=Q^2/2` or, `q=Q/sqrt2`

In an LCR series ac circuit `R=10Omega` , L=50 mH and `C=5muF`. Find out the resonant frequency and Q-factor. Find also the bandwidth and half-power frequencies.

Answer» Hence, L=50mH =`5times10^-2H`
`5 muF=5times10^-6F`
`therefore` Resonant frequency,
`f_0=1/(2pisqrt(Lc))=1/(2times3.4timessqrt((5times10^-2)times(5 times 10^-6)))`
`=10^4/(2times3.14times5)=318.5Hz`
and Q factor = `=1/Rsqrt(L/C)=1/10sqrt((5times10^-2)/(5times10^-6))=1/10times 100=10`
Now, `Omega=omega_e/(Deltaomega)=f_0/(Deltaf)`
`therefore` Bandwidth, `Deltaf=f_0/Q=318.5/10=31.85Hz`
Half- power frequencies are,
`f_1=f_0-(Deltaf)/2=318.5-31.85/2=302.6Hz`
and `f_2=f_1+(Deltaf)/2=302.6+15.92=318.52 Hz`

A series resonant LCR circuit has a quality factor (Q-factor)=0.4. If `R=2k Omega, C=0.1 mu F` then the value of inductance isA. `0.1 H`B. `0.064 H`C. 2 HD. 5 H

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Quality factor `Q = (1)/(R )sqrt((L)/(C ))` or `(L)/(C )=(QR)^(2)`
Here, `Q = 0.4, R = 2 k Omega= 2xx10^(3)Omega`
`C=0.1 mu F=0.1xx10^(-6)F`
`therefore L=(QR)^(2)C`
`therefore L =(0.4xx2xx10^(-3))^(2)xx0.1xx10^(-6)=0.064 H`

Obtain the resonant frequency and Q-factor of a series LCR circuit with `L=3.0H, C=27muF, and R=7.4 Omega`. How will you improve the sharpness of resonance of the circuit by a factor of 2 by reducing its full width at half maximum?

Answer» Inductance, L=3.0H
Capacitance, C=27`muF`=27`xx10^(-6) F`
Resistance, R=`7.4Omega`
at resonance, angular frequency of the source for the given LCR series circuit is given as:
`omega_(r)=(1)/sqrt(LC)`
`=(1)/sqrt(3xx27xx10^(-6))=(10^(3))/(9)=111.11` rad `s^(-1)`
Q-factor of the series:
`Q=(omega_(r)L)/(R)`
`=(111.11xx3)/(7.4)=45.446`
To improve the sharpness of the resonance by reduc ing its full width at half maximum. by a factor of 2 wihtout changing `omega_(r)`, we need to reduce R to half i.e.,
`(R)/(2)=(7.4)/(2)=3.7Omega`
Resistance

A current of 4 A flows in a coil when connected to a 12 V dc source. If the same coil is connected to a `12 V, 50 rad s^(-1)` ac source, a current of 2.4 A flows of the coil in the circuit. The inductance of the coil isA. 0.02HB. 0.04HC. 0.08HD. 1.0H

Answer» Correct Answer - C
When dc is applied , `I=V/R i.e, R=12/4 = 3 Omega`
and when ac is applied , `Z+V/I = ((12)/(2.4))= 5 Omega`
`R^(2) + X_(L)^(2) = 5^(2) (as Z= sqrt(R^(2)+X_(L)^(2)))`
so, `X_(L)^(2) = 5^(2)-R^(2) = 5^(2)-3^(2)=4^(2), i.e. X_(L) = 4 Omega`
but as , `X_(L) = omega L , L (X_L) /(omega) = (4)/(50)= 0.08 H`.

The power developed in the circuit of a `2500 (mu)F` capacitor that is connected in series with the coil isA. 17.28 WB. 8.64 WC. 10 WD. 15 W

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Now when the capacitor is connected to the above circuit in series,
`X_(C)=1/(omega C) = (1)/(50 xx 2500 xx 10^(-6)) =(10^3)/(125) = 8 Omega`
so, `Z=sqrt(R^(2)+(X_(L)-X_(C ))^(2)) = sqrt(3^(2)+(4-8)^(2))= 5 Omega`
and hence, `I_(rms) = V/Z 12/5 = 2.4 A`
so, `P_(av) = V_(rms) I_(rms) cos phi = (I_(rms)xxZ) xx (I_(rms))xx((R )/(Z))`
i.e., `P(av)=I_(rms)^(2)R=(2.4)^(2) xx 3 = 17.28 W`.

The current `I_(R)` through the resistor and voltage `V_(c)` across the capacitor are compared in the two cases. Which of the following is/ are true?A. `I_(R )^(A) gt I_(R )^(B)`B. `I_(R )^(A) lt I_(R )^(B)`C. `V_(C )^(A) gt V_(C)^(B)`D. `V_(C )^(A) lt V_(C)^(B)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B::C
Case (A): `Z_(A)=sqrt(R^(2)+((1)/(omega C))^(2))`
case (B) `Z_(B)=sqrt(R^(2)+((1)/(omega K C))^(2))`
so, `Z_(B)ltZ_(A)`
`I_(R )^(A)=V/(Z_A)` and `I_(R )^(B) = V/(Z_B) clearly `I_(R )^(A) lt I_(R )^(B)`.
Since currnet in case (B) is greater so, p.d. across R will increases in case(B) and thus across capacitor will decrease.
Hence `V_(C )^(A) gt V_(C)^(B)`. `(V_(R )^(2)+V_(C )^(2)=V_(0)^(2))` .

Answer» Correct Answer - `08 H; 17.28` watt
Given that
`R=V/I=12/4=3 Omega`
`Z=12/2.4=5 Omega`
`Z^(2)=R^(2)+(omegaL)^(2)`
`25=p+(50xxL)^(2) rArr L=0.08 H`
Now for `LCR` circuit `Z=sqrt((R^(2):(X_(L)-X_(C))^(2)` )
`=sqrt(3^(2)+(50xx0.08-1/(50xx2500xx10^(-5)))^(2))=5Omega`.
So Power=`(12/Z)^(2)xxR=(12/5)^(3)xx3=17.28` watt.

In `DC`, only resistance is effective. Hence,
`R=V/i=12/4=3Omega`
In `AC`, `i_("rms")=V_("rms")/Z=V_("rms")/(sqrt(R^2+omega^2L^2))`
`:.L^2=1/omega^2[(V_("rms")/i_("rms"))^2-R^2]`
`:. L=1/omega[(V_("rms")/i_("rms"))^2-R^(2)`
Substituting the values, we have
`L=1/50sqrt((12/2.4)^2-(3)^(2))`
`=0.08H`
(ii) When capacitor is connected to the circuit, the impedance is
`Z=sqrt(R^2+(X_L-X_C)^(2))`
Here `R=3Omega`
`X_L=omegaL=(50)(0.08)=4Omega`
and `X_C=1/(omegaC)=1/((50)(2500xx10^-6))=8Omega`
`:. Z=sqrt((3)^2+(4-8)^(2))=5 Omega`
Now, `(:P:)=V_("rms")i_("rms")cosphi`
`=V_("rms")xxV_("rms")/ZxxR/Z`
`=(V_("rms")/Z)^2xxR`
Substituting the values, we have
`(:P:)=(12/5)^2xx3`
`=17.28W`.

Answer» Correct Answer - B
(b) `I_(rms)= V_(rms)/sqrt (R^(2) + 1/(omega^(2)c^(2))`
when `omega increases, I_(rms)` increases so thwe bulb glows brighter .
