Number of Questions asked in last 3 years
• In 2015, in Delhi set, one-question of 1 mark based on Self Inductance, one question of
3 marks based on AC Generator and one question of 5 marks based on Mutual
Inductance were asked.

• In 2016, in Delhi set, only one question of 3 marks and in All India set, only one question of
5 marks based on Mutual Inductance were asked.
• In 2017, one question of 1 marks based on Magnetic Flux and one question of 3 marks
based on Inductance were asked in both sets.
On the basis of above analysis, it can be said that from exam point of view AC Generator,
Magnetic Flux and Inductance are most important concepts of the chapter.
