The series and parallel resonance on L-C circuit' differs in that
- A.
Series resistance needs a low-resistance source for sharp rise in current
- B.
Series resonance needs a high-resistance source for sharp increase in current
- C.
Parallel resonance needs a low-resistance source for a sharp increase in impedance
- D.
Parallel resonance needs a low-resistance source for a sharp rise in line current
Correct Answer
A. Series resistance needs a low-resistance source for sharp rise in currentExplanation
In a series resonance on an L-C circuit, the current reaches its maximum value when the impedance is at its minimum. This occurs when the inductive reactance and the capacitive reactance cancel each other out. To achieve a sharp rise in current, the series resistance needs to be low in order to minimize the overall impedance of the circuit. This allows the current to flow easily without being hindered by high resistance.Rate this question:

In a highly capacitive circuit the
- A.
Apparent power is equal to the actual power
- B.
Reactive power is more than the apparent power
- C.
Reactive power is more than the actual power
- D.
Actual power is more than its reactive power
Correct Answer
C. Reactive power is more than the actual powerExplanation
In a highly capacitive circuit, the reactive power is more than the actual power. This is because in a capacitive circuit, the current leads the voltage, causing the power factor to be lagging. As a result, the reactive power, which represents the energy stored and released by the capacitor, is greater than the actual power, which is the real power consumed by the circuit.Rate this question:

The hot resistance of the bulb's filament is higher than its cold resistance because the temperature coefficient of the filament is
- A.
Zero
- B.
Negative
- C.
Positive
- D.
About 2 ohms per degree
Correct Answer
C. PositiveExplanation
The hot resistance of the bulb's filament is higher than its cold resistance because the temperature coefficient of the filament is positive. This means that as the temperature of the filament increases, its resistance also increases. Therefore, when the bulb is turned on and the filament heats up, its resistance increases, resulting in a higher hot resistance compared to its cold resistance.Rate this question:

Two copper conductors have equal length. The cross-sectional area of one conductor is four times that of the other. If the conductor having smaller cross-sectional area has a resistance of 40 ohms the resistance of other conductor will be
- A.
160 ohms
- B.
80 ohms
- C.
20 ohms
- D.
10 ohms
Correct Answer
D. 10 ohmsExplanation
The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. In this case, the conductor with the smaller cross-sectional area has a resistance of 40 ohms. Since the cross-sectional area is four times smaller, the resistance of the other conductor will be four times larger. Therefore, the resistance of the other conductor will be 4 * 40 ohms, which is equal to 160 ohms.Rate this question:

Which of the following statement is correct?
- A.
A semiconductor is a material whose conductivity is same as between that of a conductor and an insulator
- B.
A semiconductor is a material which has conductivity having average value of conductivity of metal and insulator
- C.
A semiconductor is one which conducts only half of the applied voltage
- D.
A semiconductor is a material made of alternate layers of conducting material and insulator
Correct Answer
A. A semiconductor is a material whose conductivity is same as between that of a conductor and an insulatorExplanation
Semiconductors are materials that have conductivity levels between those of conductors and insulators. Conductors have high conductivity, allowing electric current to flow easily, while insulators have low conductivity, preventing the flow of electric current. Semiconductors fall in between, with a moderate level of conductivity. This makes semiconductors useful in various electronic devices, as their conductivity can be controlled and manipulated.Rate this question:

The primary coil of a transformer is connected to a 60 V ac source. The secondary coil is connected to a 330 Ω load. The turns ratio is 3:1. What is the secondary voltage?
- A.
2 V
- B.
20 V
- C.
180 V
- D.
18 V
Correct Answer
B. 20 VExplanation
The turns ratio of 3:1 means that for every 3 turns in the primary coil, there is 1 turn in the secondary coil. Since the primary coil is connected to a 60 V ac source, the voltage across the secondary coil can be calculated using the turns ratio.
Voltage across secondary coil = (Voltage across primary coil) * (Number of turns in secondary coil / Number of turns in primary coil)
= 60 V * (1/3)
= 20 V
Therefore, the secondary voltage is 20 V.Rate this question:

0 W
- B.
14.1 W
- C.
111.5 W
- D.
1,020 W
Correct Answer
C. 111.5 WExplanation
The input power to the primary is 120 W and 8.5 W are lost to the winding resistance. This means that the total power delivered to the load is 120 W - 8.5 W = 111.5 W. Neglecting any other issues, the output power to the load is therefore 111.5 W.Rate this question:

The range of projectile will be maximum for a given velocity of projectile, when the angle of projection (α) is
- A.
β/2
- B.
30° + β/2
- C.
45° + β/2
- D.
60° + β/2
Correct Answer
C. 45° + β/2Explanation
The range of a projectile is the maximum horizontal distance it can travel. To maximize the range, the projectile needs to be launched at an angle that balances the vertical and horizontal components of its velocity. This angle is 45 degrees. Adding β/2 to this angle will not change the fact that 45 degrees is the optimal angle for maximum range. Therefore, the correct answer is 45° + β/2.Rate this question:

In the equation of virtual work, following force is neglected
- A.
Reaction of any smooth surface with which the body is in contact
- B.
Reaction of a rough surface of a body which rolls on it without slipping
- C.
Reaction at a point or an axis, fixed in space, around which a body is constrained to turn
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the aboveExplanation
The equation of virtual work is used to calculate the work done by a system of forces. In this equation, the reaction of any smooth surface with which the body is in contact is neglected. This is because the smooth surface does not provide any resistance or force that needs to be considered in the calculation. Similarly, the reaction of a rough surface of a body which rolls on it without slipping is also neglected because the rough surface does not affect the work done by the system of forces. Additionally, the reaction at a point or an axis, fixed in space, around which a body is constrained to turn is also neglected in the equation of virtual work. Therefore, all of the above reactions are neglected in the equation.Rate this question:

If rain is falling in the opposite direction of the movement of a pedestrian, he has to hold his umbrella
- A.
More inclined when moving
- B.
Less inclined when moving
- C.
More inclined when standing
- D.
Less inclined when standing
Correct Answer
D. Less inclined when standingExplanation
When rain is falling in the opposite direction of the movement of a pedestrian, he has to hold his umbrella less inclined when standing. This is because when the pedestrian is standing still, the umbrella needs to be held at a higher angle to provide maximum coverage and protect the pedestrian from getting wet. However, when the pedestrian is moving, the forward motion helps to create a natural shield against the rain, allowing the umbrella to be held at a lower angle and still provide adequate protection.Rate this question:

- B.
[2(m₁ + m₂)/m₁ m₂] (u₁ - u₂)²
- C.
[m₁ m₂/2(m₁ + m₂)] (u₁² - u₂²)
- D.
[2(m₁ + m₂)/m₁ m₂] (u₁² - u₂²)
Correct Answer
A. [m₁ m₂/2(m₁ + m₂)] (u₁ - u₂)²Explanation
The correct answer is [m₁ m₂/2(m₁ + m₂)] (u₁ - u₂)². This formula represents the loss of kinetic energy during an inelastic impact. It takes into account the masses of both bodies (m₁ and m₂) and the velocities of the bodies before the impact (u₁ and u₂). The formula calculates the difference in velocities (u₁ - u₂), squares it, and multiplies it by the product of the masses divided by twice the sum of the masses. This equation accurately represents the loss of kinetic energy in an inelastic collision.Rate this question:

- D.
E/ 3p × (2/m - 1)
Correct Answer
C. 3p/ E × (1 - 2/m)Explanation
Answer: Option C
Solution: Stress p in x-direction causes tensile strain p/E in x-direction, while the ‘p’ in ‘y’ and ‘z’ direction causes compressive strains µ(p/E) in x-direction.
Therefore, ex = p/E - µ(p/E) - µ(p/E) = p/E × (1- 2µ)
So, ey =p/E × (1- 2µ), ez = p/E × (1- 2µ)

- C.
π /32 × τ × D³
- D.
π /64 × τ × D³
Correct Answer
B. π /16 × τ × D³Explanation
The correct answer is π/16 × τ × D³ because it is the correct formula for calculating the torque transmitted by a solid shaft of diameter D. The formula involves multiplying the maximum allowable shear stress (τ) by the diameter cubed (D³) and then multiplying that by π/16.

- A.
400 MPa
- B.
500 MPa
- C.
900 MPa
- D.
1400 MPa
Correct Answer
D. 1400 MPaExplanation
Answer: Option D
Solution: tan2θ = 2q/ (p x - p y) = (2 × 400)/ (1200 – 600) = 1.33
Therefore, 2θ = tan⁻¹ 1.33 = 53.06°
Therefore, pn = 1200 + 600)/ 2 + (1200 – 600)/ 2 × cos 53.06 + 400 sin 530.6
=900 + 180.294 + 319.70
=1400 MPa.

- C.
Load/ instantaneous cross-sectional area and change in length/ original length
- D.
Load/ instantaneous area and instantaneous area/original area
Correct Answer
B. Load/ instantaneous cross-sectional area and loge (original area/ instantaneous area)Explanation
The correct answer is Load/ instantaneous cross-sectional area and loge (original area/ instantaneous area) because the true stress-strain curve for materials is plotted using the load divided by the instantaneous cross-sectional area, which represents the true stress, and the natural logarithm of the ratio of the original area to the instantaneous area, which represents the true strain. This relationship accounts for the change in area as the material undergoes deformation and provides a more accurate representation of the material's behavior under stress.Rate this question:
