    To protect the diodes in a rectifier and capacitor input filter circuit it is necessary to use

    • Surge resistor

    • Surge inductor

    • Surge capacitor

    • Both (a) and (b)

    Correct Answer
    A. Surge resistor
    Explanation
    To protect the diodes in a rectifier and capacitor input filter circuit, it is necessary to use a surge resistor. A surge resistor helps to limit the surge current that can flow through the diodes during power-up or power-down, preventing any damage to the diodes. It acts as a current-limiting device, absorbing the excess energy and dissipating it as heat. By using a surge resistor, the diodes are protected from the high current surges that can occur in the circuit, ensuring their longevity and reliability. A surge resistor is therefore essential in safeguarding the diodes in this type of circuit.

    If the input to the ideal comparator shown in the figure is a sinusoidal signal of 8 V (peak to peak) without any DC component, then the output of the comparator has a duty cycle of - ProProfs

    If the input to the ideal comparator shown in the figure is a sinusoidal signal of 8 V (peak to peak) without any DC component, then the output of the comparator has a duty cycle of

    • 1/2

    • 1/3

    • 1/6

    • 1/12

    Correct Answer
    A. 1/3
    Explanation
    The ideal comparator compares the input signal to a reference voltage and produces a digital output based on whether the input signal is above or below the reference voltage. In this case, since the input signal is a sinusoidal signal without any DC component, the output of the comparator will be a square wave with a duty cycle of 1/3. This means that the signal will be high for one-third of the time and low for two-thirds of the time.

    N a CE amplifier the input impedance is equal to the ratio of

    • Ac base voltage to ac base current

    • Ac base voltage to ac emitter current

    • Ac emitter voltage to ac collector current

    • Ac collector voltage to ac collector current

    Correct Answer
    A. Ac base voltage to ac base current
    Explanation
    In a CE (common emitter) amplifier, the input impedance is equal to the ratio of the AC base voltage to the AC base current. This means that the input impedance is determined by the voltage applied to the base terminal divided by the current flowing into the base terminal. The base current is directly related to the input voltage, so by measuring the ratio of these two quantities, we can determine the input impedance of the amplifier.

    • 90°

    • 45°

    • 270°

    • 360°

    Correct Answer
    A. 360°
    Explanation
    For a system to work as an oscillator, the total phase shift of the loop gain must be 360°. This means that the output of the system must be in phase with the input after completing one full cycle. A phase shift of 360° indicates that the system is able to sustain oscillations and maintain a constant frequency.

    If current through a resistance is halved

    • The resistance is halved

    • The voltage is halved

    • The voltage doubles

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. The voltage is halved
    Explanation
    When the current through a resistance is halved, according to Ohm's Law (V = IR), the voltage across the resistance will also be halved. This is because the voltage is directly proportional to the current flowing through the resistance. Therefore, if the current is reduced by half, the voltage will also be reduced by half.

    • Voltage, current, and time

    • Power, current, and resistance

    • Resistance, time, and current

    • Voltage, current, and resistance

    Correct Answer
    A. Voltage, current, and resistance
    Explanation
    Ohm's law states that the current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied across it and inversely proportional to the resistance of the conductor. In other words, the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance can be expressed mathematically as V = I * R, where V is the voltage, I is the current, and R is the resistance. Therefore, the correct answer is voltage, current, and resistance.

    The expansion of fuel in a four stroke cycle diesel engine

    • Starts at 15° before top dead centre and ends at 30° after top dead centre

    • Starts at top dead centre and ends at 30° after top dead centre

    • Starts at 15° after top dead centre and ends at 30° before bottom dead centre

    • May start and end anywhere

    Correct Answer
    A. Starts at 15° after top dead centre and ends at 30° before bottom dead centre
    Explanation
    The expansion of fuel in a four stroke cycle diesel engine starts at 15° after top dead centre and ends at 30° before bottom dead centre. This is the correct answer because in the expansion stroke, the piston moves from top dead centre to bottom dead centre, creating downward pressure and expanding the fuel-air mixture in the cylinder. The expansion stroke begins after the piston has passed top dead centre and continues until it reaches 30° before bottom dead centre, at which point the exhaust valve opens and the exhaust stroke begins.

    Reactors for propulsion applications are designed for

    • Any form of uranium

    • Natura uranium

    • Enriched uranium

    • Plutonium

    Correct Answer
    A. Enriched uranium
    Explanation
    Reactors for propulsion applications are designed to use enriched uranium. Enriched uranium is uranium that has a higher concentration of the isotope uranium-235, which is more fissile and can sustain a chain reaction. This is important for propulsion applications as it allows for a sustained release of energy, which is necessary for powering a reactor. Natural uranium, on the other hand, has a lower concentration of uranium-235 and would not be able to sustain a chain reaction efficiently. Plutonium is not commonly used in reactors for propulsion applications.

    For an op-amp having a slew rate SR = 5 V/ms, what is the maximum closed-loop voltage gain that can be used when the input signal varies by 0.2 V in 10 ms?

    • 150

    • 200

    • 250

    • 300

    Correct Answer
    A. 250
    Explanation
    The maximum closed-loop voltage gain that can be used is determined by the slew rate of the op-amp and the rate at which the input signal is changing. The slew rate is given as 5 V/ms, which means that the op-amp can change its output voltage by a maximum of 5 V in 1 ms. The input signal varies by 0.2 V in 10 ms, so the maximum output voltage change required is 0.2 V in 10 ms. To ensure that the op-amp can handle this, the maximum closed-loop voltage gain can be calculated as the ratio of the maximum output voltage change to the maximum input voltage change, which is 0.2 V in 10 ms divided by 5 V/ms, resulting in a gain of 250.

    What is the level of the voltage between the input terminals of an op-amp?

    • Virtually zero

    • 5 V

    • 18 V

    • 22 V

    Correct Answer
    A. Virtually zero
    Explanation
    The level of voltage between the input terminals of an op-amp is virtually zero. This is because an ideal op-amp has a very high input impedance, which means that it draws almost no current from the input source. As a result, the voltage drop across the input terminals is negligible, making the voltage level virtually zero.

  • 21. 

    A three-stage op-amp can have a maximum phase lag of ________°.

    • -180

    • -90

    • -270

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. -270
    Explanation
    A three-stage op-amp can have a maximum phase lag of -270°. This means that the output signal of the op-amp lags behind the input signal by 270 degrees at maximum. The negative sign indicates that the output signal is delayed compared to the input signal. This large phase lag can occur due to the internal circuitry and feedback mechanisms within the op-amp.

    Which of the following symptom is caused as a result of brake disc run out ?

    • Ineffectiveness of the brakes

    • Judder during braking

    • Localized wearing of the brake pads

    • Rapid wearing of the brake pads

    Correct Answer
    A. Judder during braking
    Explanation
    Judder during braking is caused as a result of brake disc run out. When the brake disc is not properly aligned or has uneven thickness, it causes the brake pads to make uneven contact with the disc. This uneven contact leads to vibrations and juddering sensations when the brakes are applied. Therefore, judder during braking is a common symptom of brake disc run out.

    • Partly convert engine power into electric power

    Correct Answer
    A. Continually recharge the battery
    Explanation
    The function of an alternator in an automobile is to continually recharge the battery. While it does supply electric power and convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, its primary purpose is to ensure that the battery remains charged. The alternator uses the engine's power to generate electricity, which is then used to recharge the battery and power the electrical systems of the vehicle. This ensures that the battery does not lose its charge and can continue to provide power to start the engine and run other electrical components.

    The flywheel and the pressure plate bind the clutch disc between them so that the engine and the transmission can be engaged.

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes
    Explanation
    The flywheel and pressure plate are two essential components of a clutch system in a vehicle. The flywheel is connected to the engine, while the pressure plate is connected to the transmission. When the clutch pedal is pressed, the pressure plate releases the clutch disc, allowing it to spin freely. When the pedal is released, the pressure plate applies pressure to the clutch disc, which then engages with the flywheel, connecting the engine and the transmission. Therefore, the statement is correct, as the flywheel and pressure plate indeed bind the clutch disc between them for the engine and transmission to be engaged.

    The air gap between the central electrode and ground (or side) electrode of a spark plug is around

    • 0.2 mm

    • 0.5 mm

    • 1 mm

    • 1.5 mm

    Correct Answer
    A. 1 mm
    Explanation
    The air gap between the central electrode and ground electrode of a spark plug is typically around 1 mm. This gap is important because it allows for the formation of a spark to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber of an engine. A larger gap may result in a weaker spark, while a smaller gap may cause the spark to be too hot and potentially cause damage to the spark plug or engine components. Therefore, a 1 mm gap is a common and optimal choice for spark plug performance.

    Which of the following indicates a multigrade oil ?

    • SAE 30

    • API SF

    • SAE 20 W-50

    • API 50

    Correct Answer
    A. SAE 20 W-50
    Explanation
    SAE 20 W-50 indicates a multigrade oil because it has two viscosity ratings separated by a "W" (winter) symbol. The "20" indicates the oil's viscosity at low temperatures, making it suitable for winter use, while the "50" indicates its viscosity at high temperatures. This means that the oil can provide adequate lubrication in both cold and hot weather conditions, making it a multigrade oil.
