(D) Output remains stable at '0' ]
SOL 1.30 Option (B) is correct.
From the combinational logic
Let D is input, Qn is present state, Qn + 1 is next state, then
R = D 5 Q, S = D 5 Q
Characteristic equation of R-S flip-flop is given by
Qn + 1 = S + RQn
So, Qn + 1 = (D + Qn) + (D 5 Qn) Qn
= (D 5 Qn) + (D 5 Qn) Qn
= (D 5 Qn) (1 5 Qn) = (D 5 Qn) = DQ n + DQn
For D = 0 , Qn + 1 = Qn
D = 1, Qn + 1 = Qn
So, the circuit function as a T-flip flop.

in terms of will be
(A) 1 : n (B) 1 : 2n
(C) n : 2 (D) 2n : 3
SOL 1.65 Correct option is (C).
Since the ^m + 1hth , ^n + 1hth and ^r + 1hth term of an A.P. are in G.P. so,
^a + nd h2 = ^a + md h^a + rd h ....(i)
[assume a and d as the first term and common difference of an AP] Also m , n , r,
are in HP so,
2n = m + r ....(ii)

(C) 1.6321 (D) 2.4189
SOL 1.40 Option (A) is correct.
x : 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4
Euler’s method gives
yn + 1 = yn + h (xn, yn) ...(i)
n = 0 in (1) gives
y1 = y0 + hf (x0, y0)
Here x0 = 0 , y0 = 1, h = 0.1
y1 = 1 + 0.1f (0, 1) = 1 + 0 = 1
n = 0 in (1) gives y2 = y1 + hf (x1, y1)
= 1 + 0.1f (0.1, 1) = 1 + 0.1 (0.1) = 1 + 0.01
Thus y2 = y(0.2) = 1.01
n = 2 in (1) gives
y 3 = y2 + hf (x2, y2) = 1.01 + 0.1f (0.2, 1.01)
y 3 = y(0.3) = 1.01 + 0.0202 = 1.0302
n = 3 in (1) gives
y 3 = y2 + hf (x2, y2) = 1.01 + 0.1f (0.2, 1.01)
y 3 = y(0.3) = 1.01 + 0.0202 = 1.0302
n = 3 in (1) gives
y 4 = y 3 + hf (x 3, y 3) = 1.0302 + 0.1f (0.3, 1.0302)
= 1.0302 + 0.03090
y 4 = y(0.4) = 1.0611

Transformer is a static device so the leakage impedance does not change with changes
in phase sequence of appliead voltages. Thus the negative sequence impedance is
also equal to its leakage reactance.

MCQ 1.28 A 220 V dc shunt motor takes 5 A current on no load while running at a speed
of 1000 rpm. It has an armature and a shunt field resistance of 0.3 Ω and 200 Ω
respectively. Now the motor is driving a load drawing 40 A current from the
supply. If the armature reaction weakens the field by 2.5% on this load, what would
be speed of the motor ?
Assume magnetic circuit to be unsaturated.
(A) 954 rpm (B) 976 rpm
(C) 1023 rpm (D) 238.5 rpm
SOL 1.28 Option (B) is correct.
At no load
Load Current InL = 5 A
Field current I f, nL = 220 = 1.1 A
200
Armature current Ia, nL = InL − I f, nL = 5 − 1.1 = 3.9 A
Back emf Ea, nL = Vt − Ia, nL Ra
= 220 − 3.9 # 0.3 = 218.83 V
Page 13 Practice paper EE_E Chapter 1
At load
Load current IL = 40 A
When the load is connected field current would be reduced by 2.5%, so I f is taken
as 1.0725 A (2.5% less) instead of 1.1 A.
Field current I f = 1.0725 A
Armature current Ia = IL − I f = 38.9 A
Back emf Ea = Vt − Ia Ra
= 220 − 38.9 # 0.3 = 208.33 V
Ea = I f # n
Ea, nL I f, nL # n nL
I
or n = n 0 # f, nL # Ea
If Ea, nL

MCQ 1.29 An industrial system has a load of 100 kVA at 0.6 pf lagging. A synchronous motor
is added to the system to improve the overall power factor. If the synchronous
motor is operating at 10 kW and 0.5 pf leading, then the overall power factor of
the system is
(A) 0.58 (lagging) (B) 0.74 (lagging)
(C) 0.99 (leading) (D) 0.39 (leading)
SOL 1.29 Option (B) is correct.
For the plant
θP = cos−1 (0.6) = 53.13c (lag)
Complex power
SP = 100 53.13c = 60 + j80 kVA
For the synchronous motor
θm = cos−1 (0.5) = 60c (lead)
Sm = 10 = 20 kVA
0.5
Thus, Sm = 20 − 60c = 10 − j17.32 kVA
The overall power requirements are
Stotal = SP + Sm
= 60 + 10 + j (80 − 17.32)
or Stotal = 93.96 41.84c kVA
and the power factor is
pf = cos (41.84c) = 0.74 lagging
