(i) The primary of a transformer has 400 turns while the secondary has 2000 turns. If the power output from the secondary at 1100 V is 12.1 kW, calculate the primary voltage. (ii) If the resistance of the primary is `0.2 Omega` and that of the secondary is `2.0 Omega` and the efficiency of the transformer is `90 %`, calculate the heat losses in the primary and the secondary coils.

Answer» i) Given, `N_(1) = 400, `N_(2)`=2000, `V_(2)=1100V
As `V_(1)=V_(2).N_(1)/N_(2)= 1100 xx 400/2000 = 220V`
ii) Resistance of primary, `R_(1) = 0.2Omega`
Resistance of secondary, `R_(2) = 2.0 Omega`
Output power =`V_(2)I_(2)`=12.1kW = 12100 W
`therefore` Current in the secondary, `I_(2)=P_(2)/V_(2) = 12100/1100 = 11A`
As, efficiency = ("output power")/("input power")
`rArr 90/100 = (12100W)/("input power")`
Input power, `P_(1) = (12100 x 100)/90 = 13.44 xx 10^(3)`W
Also, input power, `P_(1) = V_(1)I_(1)`
`therefore` Current in the primary,
`I_(1) = P_(1)/V_(1) = (13.44 xx 10^(2))/(220) = 61.1`A
Power loss in the primary,
`=I_(1)^(2)R_(1) = (61.1)^(2)xx 0.2 = 746.61`W
Power loss in the secondary,
`=I_(2)^(2)R_(2) = (11)^(2) xx 20 = 242W`

Answer» i) Flus linked with each turn of primary,
`phi=Bacosomegat=phi_(0)cosomegat`
Here, `phi_(0)` BA=maximum value of flux linked with each turn
`therefore V_(1)=-N_(1)(dphi)/(dt) = -N_(1)d/(dt)(phi_(0)cosomegat) = omegaN_(1)phi_(0)sinomegat`
Peak value of `V_(1) = V_(0) = omegaN_(1)phi_(0)`
or `phi_(0) = V_(0)/(omegaN_(1))`
Given, `V_(1) = 600 sin 314t=V_(0)Sinomegat`
`therefore V_(0)=600V, omega=314 rad s^(-1)`
Here, `phi^(0) = 600/(314xx20)=0.0955Wb`
ii) `V_(2)^(0)/V_(1)^(0) = N_(2)/N_(1)`
`therefore` Maximum value of secondary voltage is,
`V_(2)^(2) = N_(2)/N_(1)V_(1)^(0)= 100/20 xx 600 = 3000V`

Substituting the values, `(110V)/(220V) = I_(p)/(0.54A)`
On Solving `I_(p) =0.27A`

A 0.21 H inductor and a `12 Omega ` resistance are connected in series to a `220 V, 50 Hz ac source. The current in the circuit isA. `(220)/(sqrt(4400))A`B. `(22)/(3sqrt(5)) A`C. `(220)/(sqrt(4500))A`D. `(22)/(5sqrt(3)) A`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
here,
`X_(L)=omega L =2 pi L = 2pi xx 50 xx 0.21 = 21 pi Omega`
so, `Z=sqrt(R^(2)+X_(L)^(2))=sqrt(12^(2)+(21 pi)^(2))`
`=sqrt(12^(2)+(21 xx 21//7)^(2))=sqrt(4500))=30 sqrt(5) Omega`
so, (a) `I=(V)/(Z) =(220)/(3 sqrt(5))A`
and (b) `phi=tan^(_1)((X_L)/(R )) = tan^(-1) ((21 pi)/(12)) = tan^(-1)((7 pi)/(4))`
i.e. the current will lag the applied voltage.

Brightness of the bulb decreases whenA. frequency of the AC source is decreasedB. number of turns in hte coil is reducedC. a capacitance of reactance `X_(C) = X_(L)` is included in the same circuit.D. an iron rod is inserted in the coil

Answer» Correct Answer - D
`Z= sqrt(R^(2)+X_(L)^(2)) = sqrt(R^(2)+(2pifvL)^(2))`
As, `I=V/Z, P=I^(2)R`

A circuit containing an `80mH` inductor and a `60(mu)F` capacitor in sereis is connected to a `230V-50Hz` Supply. The resistance in the circuit is negligible . (a) Obtain the current amplitude and rms currents. (b) Obtain the rms values of voltage across inductor and capacitor. (c ) What is the average power transferred to the inductor and to hte capacitor? (d) What is the total power absorbed by the circuit?

Answer» (a) Given `L=80MH, C=60(mu)F, E_(v)=230V, f=50Hz`
Since the circuit has no resistance, so impedance of the circuit is equal to its reactance.
`Z=X=X_(C)_X_(L)=(1)/(100 pi C)-100pi L=28 (Omega)`
Current amplitude is `I_(0)=(E_0)/(Z)=(230 sqrt(2))/(28)=11.6A`
(b) The rms volatge across capacitor is
`V_(Lv)=I_(v)X_(L)=(111.6//sqrt(2))100 (pi)L=206 V`
(c ) Average power transferred to inductor and capacitor will be zero because whatever energy is used in building up of charges on capacitor (current in case of inductor ) is returned in discharging the capacitor (decay of current in case of inductor).
(d) As there is no resistance in the circuit, power factor of hte circuit is `cos(phi) =R//Z=0`. Hence, no power is absorbed by the circuit.

A circuit containing an `80mH` inductor and a `60muF` capacitor in series is connected to a `230V-50Hz` Supply. The resistance in the circuit is negligible . (a) Obtain the current amplitude and rms currents. (b) Obtain the rms values of voltage across inductor and capacitor. (c ) What is the average power transferred to the inductor and to the capacitor? (d) What is the total power absorbed by the circuit?

Answer» Inductance, L=80mH=`80xx10^(-3)H`
Capacitan ce, `C=60muF=60xx10^(-6)F`
Supply voltage, V=230V
Frequency, V= 50Hz
Angular frequency , `oemga=2nv=100`n rad/s
peak voltage, `v_(0)=Vsqrt(2)=23-sqrt(2)V`.
(a) Maximum current is given as:
`I_(0)=(V_(0))/((omegaL-( 1)/(omegaC)))`
`=(230sqrt(3))/((100pixx80xx10^(-3)-(1)/(100pixx6010^(-6)))`
`=(230sqrt(2))/((8pi-(1000)/(6pi)))=-11.63A`
the negative sign appears because `omegaLlt(1)/(omegaC)`.
Amplitude of maximum current. `|I_(0)|=11.63A`
Hence, rms value of current. `I=(I_(0))/sqrt(2)=(-11.63)/sqrt(3)=-8.22A`
(b) Potential difference across the inductor,
`V_(L)=IxxomegaL`
`=8.22xx100nxx80xx10^(-8)`
`=206.61V`
Potential difference across the capacitor,
`V_(C )=Ixx(1)/(omegaC)`
`=8.22xx(1)/(100pixx60xx10^(-6))=436.3V`
(c) Average power consumed by the inductor is zero as actual voltage leads the current `(pi)/(2)`
(d) Average power consumed by the capacitor is zero as voltage lags current by `(pi)/(2)`.
(e) The total power absorbed (averaged over one cycle ) is zero.

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`phi = tan^(-1)((X_(L))/R) = tan^(-1)((2pivL)/R)`
`=(tan^(-1))((2pi xx 50xx0.01))/(sqrt(3pi))=tan^(-1)(1/(sqrt(3))) = pi/6rad`
