(B) 23.4 KW
(C) 30.6 KW
(D) 37.8

2. What is the maximum allowable primary current of a 2 KVA step-down transformer with a four to one turns
ratio if connected across a 440 volt line?
(A) 1.1 amps
(B) 4.5 amps
(C) 18.1 amps
(D) 27.7 amps

1. If an AC motor is started and produces 25 horsepower, the kW meter reading will increase by ___________.
(A) 18.65 kW
(B) 25.65 kW
(C) 30.65 kW
37.65 kW
If resistance of any coil is 120 OHM. Calculate the resistance when its length is increased by 20% and its dia is
increased by 50 % ( fill in the blank)

Soln:

R=(Ro*L)/A

R1=120 ohm

L2= 1.2 L1

D2=1.5D1

Here

Ro1=Ro2=Ro material same

R1=(Ro*L1)/(PI/4)*D1^2 ----------------1

R2=(Ro*1.2L2)/ )/(PI/4)*(1.5D2)^2 -------------2

EQU ½

WE GET

R1/R2=1/(1.2/1.5^2)

120/R2= 1/(1.2/1.5^2)

R2= 64
What is the mageto motive force in a 75 turn coil of wire when there are 4 amp of current through it

(fill in the blank)

Soln:

75*4= 300

If it takes 35 jule of energy to move a charge of 6C from one point to another what is the voltage betn the two
points (fill in the blank)

Soln:

Q=C*V

Q=35 C=6

V=Q/C

=35/6

=5.83 V

Calculate the velocity of conductor if terminal voltage is 2.2 v/m & the magnetic field strength is 0.2T (fill in the
blank)

(Note: don’t get total formula but the procedure and ans is same as value changes ans is not get wrong)

Soln :

2.2/0.2 = 11m/s

Calculate the frequency of the motor if the speed is 4800 rpm & no of poles are 2

(sometime speed is given in RPS)

(fill in the blank)

Soln:

N=120F/P

4800=120 f/2

F=80hz
What is the power in a resistance in mili volt having resistance of 12 ohm having a potential difference of 3v (fill
in the blank)

Soln:

V=3 R=12

V=IR

I=V/R

I=3/12 = 0.25

P=V*I

=0.25*3 =0.75 WATT

ANOTHER PROCEDURE

P=V^2/R

= 3^2/12

P=0.75 WATT

What is the max allowable primary current of 2kva step down transformer with a 4-1 turns ratio if connected
across a 440 v line (uscg optional)

Soln:

I=(KVA* 1000)/V

2*1000/440

I=4.5 AMP

A 40 cm wire current of 20 amp is placed in a uniform magnetic field of 0.6 the wire make an angle of 30 degree
cal the magnitude of force on wire (fill in the blank)

F=B.I.L.Sin(thita)

F=0.4*20*0.6*Sin30

F=2.4N

Find the voltage of a motor of 200 rpm when the flux changes from 1wb to 4wb (fill in the blank)
E=N(FY1-FY2)

E= 200(4-1)

E = 600 V

Calculate avg value of 12 v peak sign wave for one complet cycle

Ans is 0 for complet cycle

For half cycle

V avg=0.637*Vm

inductance (don’t remember but the unit is same) is 6mh current go from 0.4 to 2.5 amp in 0.6 sec calculate emf
(up to 3 decimal places) (fill in the blank)

note: please check the ans. this is my ans which I hav solved

E=C*(da/dt)/t

E=0.006*(2.5-0.4)/0.6

E=0.021
