1 Poor power factor results in all of the following EXCEPT.
Reduction
in power losses

[other wrong options are – Overloading of transformers, Overloading of altemators,
Reduction in load handling capacity of electrical system, ]
2 The dual of a loop is
Node
pair

[other wrong options are – Twig, Mesh, Tree, ]
3 Higher the Q of a series circuit
Narrower
its pass band

[other wrong options are – Broader its resonance curve, Greater its band
width, Sharper its resonace, ]

electrical power converted into heat is
True
power

[other wrong options are – Apparent power, Reactive power, None of the
above, ]

0.707
Imax

[other wrong options are – 0.636 Imax, 0.318 Imax,

6 In A.C. circuit laminated iron is invariably used in order to
Reduce
eddy current loss

[other wrong options are – Increase heat radiation, Make assembly cheap and
easier, Reduce circuit permeability, ]

R
only

[other wrong options are – C only, L only, All of the above, ]

containing
Resistance
only

[other wrong options are – Capacitance only, Inductance only, All above, ]

√3 VL IL cosΦ
[other wrong options are – √3 VL IL
sinΦ, 3 VL IL sinΦ, 3 VL IL
cosΦ, ]
18 In an A.C. circuit, a low value of kVAR compared with kW indicates
High
power factor

[other wrong options are – Low efficiency, Unity power factor, Maximum Load
current, ]
19 In a pure resistive circuit
Current
is in phase with the voltage

[other wrong options are – Current lags behind the voltage by 90°, Current leads
the voltage by 90°, Current can lead or lag the voltage by 90°,
20 Inductance affects the direct current flow
At
the time of turning on and off

[other wrong options are – Only at the time of turning off, Only at the
time of turning on, At all the time of operation, ]
