  1. Three-phase Induction motor
  2. Shunt motor
  3. Synchronous motor
  4. Differential compound motor

Explanation: Differential compound motor has poor starting torque at full load speed with same H.P. ratings because its shunt fields restrict series field. The primary reason for the less starting torque than the motor is reduced field flux. The Dc compound motor is a type of self-excited motor, but it is a compound of both series and shunt field coils connected to the armature winding. A series field winding connected in series with the armature and a shunt field winding connected in parallel to the armature.

  3. W1 = 38.875 and W2 = 6.125
  4. W1 = 32.875 and W2 = 5.125

Answer: b

Explanation:

Given;

Power(P) = 40 Kw and cos?φ = 0.7 lagging

Let's suppose W1 and W2 are the readings of two wattmeters method

Then, P = W1 + W2 = 40 kW

Now, cos?φ = 0.8 lagging, = tan?(cos-1?0.7) = 1.0202

We know the formula of two wattmeter method to calculate the power measurement

Electrical MCQ

Therefore,

W1- W2 = 27.75 Kw

And we know that W1+ W2 = 40 Kw

Adding the above equation we get,

W1- W2+ W1+ W2=67.75

2 W1 = 67.75

W1 = 33.875

And, we know that

W1+ W2 = 40 Kw

Putting the value of W1 = 33.875 in the above equation

33.875+ W2= 40 Kw

W2 = 40-33.875 = 6.125

Rs ?

If the galvanometer's resistance is considered as Rg, it gives a full-scale deflection when the current Ig is passed through it.

So,

Now, consider a shunt resistor Rs, which is connected in parallel to a galvanometer. When we consider a total current passing through the circuit is I

Then,

I = Is + Ig and

V = IsRs = (I-Ig)Rs because (Is = I-Ig) from the above equation

(I-Ig)Rs = IgRg

(12 - 3 × 10-3)Rs = 120 × 10-3

Explanation: Pentavalent impurity refers to an impurity that consists of 5 valance electrons and is shared with neighboring Si atoms, and the rest of the electrons is free to move that are responsible for conduction. It produces an electron as a majority charge carrier. Trivalent impurity refers to an impurity that consists of 3 valance electrons and is shared with neighboring Si atoms to produce a p types semiconductor by producing a hole as a majority charge carrier.


51) An 8 pole, 1600 rpm D.C. lap wound generator has 1680 conductors. If the flux per pole is 0.04 weber, find the emf of the generator.

55) A single-phase having a rating of 11 kVA, 4400/440 V, 50 Hz, distribution transformer is to be connected as an auto-transformer to get an output voltage of 3260 V. Find its maximum kVA rating as an autotransformer.

  1. 111
  2. 121
  3. 144
  4. 169

Answer: b

Explanation:

We know that voltage rating is additive that is 4400+440 = 4880 V

Let a2wdg be the secondary winding of the autotransformer

Electrical MCQ

(KVA)auto= (a2wdg + 1) × (KVA) 2wdg = (10+1) × 11 = 11 × 11 = 121 KVA


56) The starting current of a three phase induction motor is 3 times the rated current, while the rated slip is 8 %. Find the ratio of starting toque to full load toque

  1. 0.5
  2. 0.75
  3. 0.72
  4. 0.80

Answer: c

Explanation:

Given;

Ist = 3 If

Sfl = 8 % = 0.08

We know that,

Electrical MCQ

57) The Ybus matrix of a 200 bus interlinked system is 70 % sparse. Find the number of transmission lines in the system

  1. 8100
  2. 7200
  3. 5900
  4. 4700

Answer: c

Explanation:

Given;

Number of buses, N = 200

Sparsity, s = 0.7

We know that, the equation to calculate transmission line

NT = N2(1-s) - N / 2

= (200)2(1-0.7)-200 / 2

= 5900


58) A negative sequence really is usually used to protect

  1. A transformer
  2. An Alternator
  3. A transistor
  4. A Junction

Answer: b

Explanation: A negative sequence is referred to a realy that is used to protect an alternator. It refers to a relay that protects the electrical machine from the negative sequence component.


59) A potentiometer is usually a

  1. Digital Instrument
  2. Deflection type instrument
  3. Null type instrument
  4. None of these

Answer: c

Explanation: A potentiometer is usually a null-type instrument. It is an electronic instrument used to find the EMF.


60) An amplifier has a gain of 30 without feedback. If 20 % of the output voltage is a feedback using its resistance negative feedback circuit, find the overall gain?

  1. 3.67
  2. 4.28
  3. 9.85
  4. 7.47

Answer: b

Explanation:

Given;

A = 30

And β = 20 % = 0.2

Because feedback is negative
