In an ideal transformer, the turns ratio is \(\frac{N_p}{N_s}=\frac{1}{2}\). The ratio \(V_s: V_p\) is equal to (the symbols carry their usual meaning): [NEET 2024]
(a) In an ideal transformer, the voltage ratio is related to the turns ratio by the formula:
\(
\frac{V_s}{V_p}=\frac{N_s}{N_p}
\)
Where:
\(V_s\) is the secondary voltage,
\(V_p\) is the primary voltage,
\(N_s\) is the number of turns in the secondary winding,
\(N_p\) is the number of turns in the primary winding.
Given that the turns ratio is \(\frac{N_p}{N_s}=\frac{1}{2}\), this implies:
\(
\frac{N_s}{N_p}=2
\)
Now, using the relationship for the voltage ratio:
\(
\frac{V_s}{V_p}=\frac{N_s}{N_p}=2
\)
Therefore, the voltage ratio \(V_s: V_p\) is \(2: 1\).
A \(10 \mu \mathrm{~F}\) capacitor is connected to a \(210 \mathrm{~V}, 50 \mathrm{~Hz}\) source as shown in the figure. The peak current in the circuit is nearly \((\pi=3.14)\) : [NEET 2024]
(a) The capacitive reactance \(X_C\) for a capacitor is given by the formula:
\(
X_C=\frac{1}{2 \pi f C}
\)
Where:
\(f\) is the frequency of the AC source \((50 \mathrm{~Hz})\),
\(C\) is the capacitance \(\left(10 \mu \mathrm{~F}=10 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~F}\right)\),
\(\pi \approx 3.14\).
Substituting the values:
\(
X_C=\frac{1}{2 \pi \times 50 \times 10 \times 10^{-6}}=\frac{1000}{3.14}
\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& V_{\mathrm{rms}}=210 \mathrm{~V} \\
& i_{\mathrm{rms}}=\frac{V_{\mathrm{rms}}}{X_C}=\frac{210}{X_C}
\end{aligned}
\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \text { Peak current }=\sqrt{2} i_{\mathrm{rms}}=\sqrt{2} \times \frac{210}{1000} \times 3.14=0.932 \\
& \quad=0.93 \mathrm{~A}
\end{aligned}

\(L, C\) and \(R\) represent the value of inductance, capacitance, and resistance, respectively. The factor which has the same dimensions as that of the inverse of the resonance frequency is: [NEET 2024]
(a) To find the factor with the same dimensions as the inverse of the resonance frequency, let’s first recall the formula for the resonance frequency \(f_0\) of an LC circuit:
\(
f_0=\frac{1}{2 \pi \sqrt{L C}}
\)
The inverse of the resonance frequency \(\frac{1}{f_0}\) would be:
\(
\frac{1}{f_0}=2 \pi \sqrt{L C}
\)
Now, let’s analyze the dimensional consistency:
The resonance frequency \(f_0\) has the dimension of time (specifically, \(T^{-1}\) ).
Therefore, the inverse resonance frequency \(\frac{1}{f_0}\) has the dimension of time (i.e., \(T\) ).
We need to find which of the given factors has the dimension of time \((T)\).
The dimensions of \(L\) (inductance) are \([L]=\mathrm{H}=\mathrm{kg} \cdot \mathrm{m}^2 \cdot \mathrm{~s}^{-2} \cdot \mathrm{~A}^{-2}\).
The dimensions of \(C\) (capacitance) are \([C]=\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{A}^2 \cdot \mathrm{~s}^4 \cdot \mathrm{~kg}^{-1} \cdot \mathrm{~m}^{-2}\).
The dimensions of \(L C\) will be \([L] \cdot[C]=\mathrm{s}^2\), so \(\sqrt{L C}\) has the dimension of time \(T\).
Thus, \(\sqrt{L C}\), has the same dimensions as the inverse of the resonance frequency.
In the circuit shown below, the inductance \(L\) is connected to a source. The current flowing in the circuit is \(I=I_0 \sin \omega t\). The voltage drop ( \(V_L\) ) across \(L\) is: [NEET 2024]
(d)Â
\(
\begin{aligned}
& V_L \text { leads current } I \text { by } \frac{\pi}{2} \\
& \therefore V_L=V_0 \sin \left(\omega t+\frac{\pi}{2}\right) \quad\left(\because I=I_0 \sin \omega t\right) \\
& V_0=I_0 X_L \\
& \Rightarrow V_L=I_0 X_L \cos (\omega t)=I_0 \omega L \cos (\omega t)
\end{aligned}

A step-up transformer is connected to an AC mains supply of 220 V to operate at \(11000 \mathrm{~V}, 88 \mathrm{~W}\). The current in the secondary circuit, ignoring the power loss in the transformer, is: [NEET 2024]
(a) To calculate the current in the secondary circuit of the step-up transformer, we can use the principle of power conservation (assuming no power loss). The power input to the transformer is equal to the power output. Therefore, we can write:
\(
P_p=P_s
\)
Where:
\(P_p\) is the power input (primary side),
\(P_s\) is the power output (secondary side).
The power is given by:
\(
P=V \cdot I
\)
Thus, the input power \(P_p=V_p \cdot I_p\) and the output power \(P_s=V_s \cdot I_s\), where:
\(V_p=220 \mathrm{~V}\) is the primary voltage,
\(V_s=11000 \mathrm{~V}\) is the secondary voltage,
\(I_p\) is the primary current,
\(I_s\) is the secondary current.
Given that the transformer operates at 88 W on the secondary side:
\(
P_s=88 \mathrm{~W}
\)
Thus:
\(
88=11000 \cdot I_s
\)
Solving for \(I_s\) :
\(
I_s=\frac{88}{11000}
\)
Let’s calculate this:
It seems like I can’t do more advanced data analysis right now. Please try again later. However, I can guide you through the calculation.
You can calculate the secondary current \(I_s\) using the formula:
\(
I_s=\frac{P_s}{V_s}=\frac{88 \mathrm{~W}}{11000 \mathrm{~V}}=0.008 \mathrm{~A}=8 \mathrm{~mA}
\)
The amplitude of the charge oscillating in a circuit decreases exponentially as \(Q=Q_0 e^{-R t / 2 L}\), where \(Q_0\) is the charge at \(t=0 \mathrm{~s}\). The time at which charge amplitude decreases to \(0.50 Q_0\) is nearly: [NEET 2024]
[Given that \(R=1.5 \Omega, L=12 \mathrm{mH}, \ln (2)=0.693\) ]
(b) The given equation for the charge in the circuit is:
\(
Q(t)=Q_0 e^{-\frac{Rt}{2 L}}
\)
Where:
\(Q_0\) is the initial charge at \(t=0\),
\(R\) is the resistance ( \(1.5 \Omega\) ),
\(L\) is the inductance \(\left(12 \mathrm{mH}=12 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{H}\right)\),
\(t\) is the time,
\(Q(t)\) is the charge at time \(t\).
We are asked to find the time when the charge amplitude decreases to \(0.50 Q_0\), which means:
\(
Q(t)=0.50 Q_0
\)
Substituting this into the equation for \(Q(t)\) :
\(
0.50 Q_0=Q_0 e^{-\frac{Rt}{2 L}}
\)
Now, take the natural logarithm of both sides:
\(
\ln (0.50)=-\frac{R t}{2 L}
\)
Since \(\ln (0.50)=-\ln (2)\) and \(\ln (2) \approx 0.693\), we get:
\(
-\ln (2)=-\frac{R t}{2 L}
\)
Simplifying:
\(
\ln (2)=\frac{R t}{2 L}
\)
Substitute the given values for \(R\) and \(L\) :
\(
0.693=\frac{1.5 t}{2 \times 12 \times 10^{-3}}
\)
\(
t=0.011088 \text { seconds }=11.09 \mathrm{~ms}
\)
An AC source is connected to a capacitor \(C\). Due to decrease in its operating frequency: [NEET 2023]
When an AC source is connected to a capacitor \(C\), the behavior of the capacitor in the circuit depends on the frequency of the AC signal. The capacitive reactance \(X_C\), which opposes the current flow in the circuit, is given by:
\(
X_C=\frac{1}{2 \pi f C}
\)
Where:
\(X_C\) is the capacitive reactance,
\(f\) is the frequency of the AC source,
\(C\) is the capacitance of the capacitor.
Effect of Decrease in Frequency:
When the operating frequency \(f\) decreases, the capacitive reactance \(X_C\) increases because \(X_C\) is inversely proportional to the frequency. As a result, the opposition to current flow in the circuit becomes greater.
Current Decreases: Since the current in an AC circuit with a capacitor is related to the voltage and the capacitive reactance by Ohm’s law \(I=\frac{V}{X_C}\), a higher \(X_C\) (due to lower frequency) will cause the current to decrease.
In summary, if the frequency decreases, the capacitive reactance increases, leading to a decrease in current.
A \(12 \mathrm{~V}, 60 \mathrm{~W}\) lamp is connected to the secondary of a step-down transformer, whose primary is connected to AC mains of 220 V . Assuming the transformer to be ideal, what is the current in the primary winding? [NEET 2023]
(b) To calculate the current in the primary winding of the transformer, we can use the principle of power conservation, assuming the transformer is ideal (no losses).
Given:
The lamp operates at 12 V and 60 W , so the power output \(P_s\) on the secondary side is 60 W .
The primary voltage \(V_p=220 \mathrm{~V}\).
The secondary voltage \(V_s=12 \mathrm{~V}\).
Since the transformer is ideal, the power input \(P_p\) equals the power output \(P_s\) :
\(
P_p=P_s
\)
We can express the power in terms of voltage and current:
\(
P=V \times I
\)
So, the current in the secondary winding \(I_s\) is:
\(
I_s=\frac{P_s}{V_s}=\frac{60}{12}=5 \mathrm{~A}
\)
Now, we use the transformer equation for an ideal transformer, which relates the primary and secondary voltages and currents:
\(
\frac{V_p}{V_s}=\frac{I_s}{I_p}
\)
Rearranging to solve for the primary current \(I_p\) :
\(
I_p=\frac{V_s \cdot I_s}{V_p}
\)
Substituting the known values:
\(
I_p=\frac{12 \times 5}{220}=\frac{60}{220} \approx 0.27 \mathrm{~A}
\)
Thus, the current in the primary winding is approximately: 0.27 A
In a series \(L C R\) circuit, the inductance \(L\) is 10 mH , capacitance \(C\) is \(1 \mu \mathrm{~F}\) and resistance \(R\) is \(100 \Omega\). The frequency at which resonance occurs is: [NEET 2023]
(a) The goal is to find the frequency at which resonance occurs in a series LCR circuit. To achieve resonance, the inductive reactance \(\left(X_L\right)\) should equal the capacitive reactance \(\left(X_C\right)\).
Given are:
Inductance, \(L=10 \mathrm{mH}=10 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{H}\)
Capacitance, \(C=1 \mu \mathrm{~F}=1 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~F}\)
Resistance, \(R=100 \Omega\) (which does not directly impact the resonance frequency)
Resonance occurs when the angular frequency \((\omega)\) meets the condition \(\omega L=\frac{1}{\omega C}\), leading to the formula for calculating the resonance frequency \((f)\) as
\(
f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi}=\frac{1}{2 \pi \sqrt{L C}}
\)
Substituting the given values:
\(
f=\frac{1}{2 \pi \sqrt{10 \times 10^{-3} \cdot 1 \times 10^{-6}}}=1.59 \mathrm{kHz}
\)
Thus, the frequency at which resonance occurs in this LCR circuit is 1.59 kHz.
The net impedance of the circuit (as shown in the figure) will be: [NEET 2023]
(d)
\(
\begin{aligned}

& X_L=5 \Omega
\end{aligned}
\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{C}}=\frac{1}{2 \pi \mathrm{fC}}=\frac{10^6}{2 \pi \times 50 \times \frac{10^3}{\pi}} \\
& \mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{C}}=10 \Omega \\
& \mathrm{Z}=\sqrt{(10)^2+(10-5)^2} \\
& \mathrm{Z}=\sqrt{125}=5 \sqrt{5} \Omega

\)
An AC source is connected to the given circuit. The value of \(\phi\) will be: [NEET 2023]
(d) In a \(LR\) circuit, phase difference between current and voltage, is given by tan \(L\)

\begin{aligned}
& \tan \phi=\frac{\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{L \omega}{R} \\
& \tan \phi=\frac{1}{\pi} \frac{100 \pi}{100}=1
\end{aligned}
\)
\(\phi=45^{\circ}\) voltage is leading the current.
If \(Z_1\) and \(Z_2\) are the impedances of the given circuits (a) and (b) as shown in the figures, then choose the correct option: [NEET 2023]
(a)

\begin{aligned}
& Z_1=\sqrt{X_L^2+R^2} \quad X_L=0 \text { (D.C. circuit) } \\
& Z_1=10 \Omega \\
& Z_2=\sqrt{X_C^2+R^2} \\
& X_C=\frac{1}{2 \pi \times 50 \times \frac{10^3}{\pi} \times 10^{-6}}=10 \Omega \\
& Z_2=\sqrt{(10)^2+(10)^2} \\
& =10 \sqrt{2} \\
& Z_1<Z_2
\end{aligned}
\)
The maximum power is dissipated for an AC in a/an: [NEET 2023]
(a)Â The maximum power is dissipated for an AC in a purely resistive circuit.
Explanation: In a purely resistive circuit, the voltage and current are in phase, meaning the power factor is 1 , which leads to the maximum power dissipation.
Power consumed in an AC circut is given by the formula
\(
\mathrm{P}=\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{rms}} \cdot \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{rms}} \cos \phi
\)
For a purely resistive circuit \(\cos \phi=1\) So, power consumption will be maximum.
For very high frequencies, the effective impedance of the circuit (shown in the figure) will be:
(c) For very high frequency, \(\omega L\) will be very high, so branch will not conduct current (behaves as open circuit) which has inductance; whereas, at high frequency, \(\frac{1}{\omega \mathrm{C}}\) will be very small, so effective reactance of the capacitor will be zero (behaves as short). So, from the given circuit, total impedance will be \(1+2=3 \Omega\)
The magnetic energy stored in an inductor of inductance \(4 \mu \mathrm{H}\) carrying a current of 2 A is : [NEET 2023]
(c) The formula for calculating the magnetic energy stored in an inductor is given by:
\(
E=\frac{1}{2} L I^2
\)
where:
\(E\) is the energy stored (in joules, J ),
\(L\) is the inductance of the inductor (in henrys, H ),
\(I\) is the current flowing through the inductor (in amperes, A).
Plugging the given values into the formula:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& E=\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \mu H \times(2 A)^2 \\
& E=\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 10^{-6} H \times 4 A^2 \\
& E=2 \times 10^{-6} H \cdot 4 \\
& E=8 \times 10^{-6} J
\end{aligned}
\)
Hence, the energy stored in the inductor is \(8 \mu J\).

(c) At resonance,
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \omega L=\frac{1}{\omega C} \\
& \omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{L C}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{10 \times 10 \times 10^{-6}}} \\
& \omega=100 \\
& \omega=2 \pi f \Rightarrow f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi} \\
& \nu_0=f_0=\frac{100}{2 \pi}=\frac{50}{\pi} \mathrm{~Hz}, \omega=100 \\
& \nu=f=\frac{100}{2 \pi}=\frac{50}{\pi}

An AC source given by \(V=V_m \sin (\omega t)\) is connected to a pure inductor \(L\) in a circuit and \(I_m\) is the peak value of the AC current. The instantaneous power supplied to the inductor is: [NEET 2022]
(a)Â To find the instantaneous power supplied to a pure inductor, we need to use the voltage and current expressions. For ar inductor, the voltage and current are out of phase by 90 degrees. Given the voltage \(V=V_m \sin (\omega t)\), the current throug the inductor is \(I=I_m \sin \left(\omega t-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)=I_m \cos (\omega t)\). The instantaneous power \(P(t)\) is given by \(P(t)=V(t) \cdot I(t)\). Substituting the expressions for \(V(t)\) and \(I(t)\). we get \(P(t)=V_m \sin (\omega t) \cdot I_m \cos (\omega t)\). Using the trigonometric identity \(\sin (2 \theta)=\) \(2 \sin (\theta) \cos (\theta)\). we can \(\operatorname{simplify}\) this to \(P(t)=\frac{V_m I_m}{2} \sin (2 \omega t)\).
Step by Step Solution:
Step 1: Write the expressions for voltage and current in the inductor: \(V=V_m \sin (\omega t)\) and \(I=I_m \cos (\omega t)\).
Step 2: Express the instantaneous power \(P(t)\) as the product of voltage and current: \(P(t)=V(t) \cdot I(t)\).
Step 3: Substitute the expressions for \(V(t)\) and \(I(t): P(t)=V_m \sin (\omega t) \cdot I_m \cos (\omega t)\).
Step 4: Use the trigonometric identity \(\sin (2 \theta)=2 \sin (\theta) \cos (\theta)\) to simplify: \(P(t)=\frac{V_m I_m}{2} \sin (2 \omega t)\).
Given below are two statements
Statement I: In an a.c circuit, the current through a capacitor leads the voltage across it.
Statement II: In a.c circuit containing pure capacitance only, the phase difference between the current and voltage is \(\pi\).
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below [NEET 2022]
(d)
\(
\begin{aligned}
&\begin{aligned}
& V=V_0 \sin \omega t \\
& V=\frac{q}{C} \\
& q=C V \sin \omega t \\
& \frac{d q}{d t}=C V \frac{d}{d t} \sin \omega t \\
& i=C V \omega \cos \omega t \\
& i=C V \omega \sin \left(\omega t+\frac{\pi}{2}\right)
\end{aligned}\\
&\text { In a.c circuit current lead by voltage by a phase } \frac{\pi}{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
Thus statement I is correct while II is incorrect.
An inductor of inductance 2 mH is connected to a \(220 \mathrm{~V}, 50 \mathrm{~Hz}\) ac source. Let the inductive reactance in the circuit is \(X_1\). If a 220 V DC source replaces the AC source in the circuit, then the inductive reactance in the circuit is \(X_2 . X_1\) and \(X_2\), respectively, are: [NEET 2022]
(c) We know, for A.C. source
\(
\begin{aligned}
& X_L=\omega L \\
& =2 \pi f(L) \\
& =100 \pi\left(2 \times 10^{-3}\right) \\
& =0.2 \pi \Omega=0.628 \Omega

\begin{aligned}
&P_{a v g}=V_{r m s} \times I_{r m s} \times \cos \phi\\
&\text { Here, } \phi=0^{\circ} \text { as current and voltage are in same phase in a resistor. }\\
&\Rightarrow 100=200 \times I_{r m s} \Rightarrow I_{r m s}=\frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow \frac{I_0}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow I_0=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=0.707 \mathrm{~A}

A step-down transformer connected to an AC mains supply of 220 V is made to operate at \(11 \mathrm{~V}, 44 \mathrm{~W}\) lamp. Ignoring power losses in the transformer, what is the current in the primary circuit? [NEET 2021]
(c)Â For an ideal transformer (no power losses), the input power equals the output power: \(\boldsymbol{P}_{\text {in }}=\boldsymbol{P}_{\text {out }}\).
Power can be calculated using the formula: \(P=V I\), where \(V\) is voltage and \(I\) is current.
Calculate the current in the primary circuit using the power equation and the principle of power conservation in an ideal transformer.
Step 1: Calculate the current in the secondary circuit
Use the formula \(P=V_s I_s\) to find \(I_s\).
Rearrange the formula to solve for \(I_s: I_s=\frac{P}{V_s}\).
Substitute the given values: \(I_s=\frac{44 \mathrm{~W}}{11 \mathrm{~V}}\).
Calculate: \(\boldsymbol{I}_s=4 \mathrm{~A}\).
Step 2: Calculate the current in the primary circuit
Since power is conserved in an ideal transformer, \(\boldsymbol{P}_{\text {in }}=\boldsymbol{P}_{\text {out }}\).
Therefore, \(V_p I_p=V_s I_s\).
Rearrange the formula to solve for \(I_p: I_p=\frac{V_s I_s}{V_p}\).
Substitute the known values: \(I_p=\frac{11 \mathrm{~V} \cdot 4 \mathrm{~A}}{220 \mathrm{~V}}\).
Calculate: \(I_p=\frac{44}{220} \mathrm{~A}=0.2 \mathrm{~A}\).

Step 1: Find the relationship between \(X_C\) and \(R\)
When \(L\) is removed, \(\tan \phi=\frac{X_C}{R}\).
Given \(\phi=\frac{\pi}{3}\), so \(\tan \frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{X_C}{R}\).
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \tan \frac{\pi}{3}=\sqrt{3}, \text { so } \sqrt{3}=\frac{X_C}{R} . \\
& X_C=R \sqrt{3} .
\end{aligned}
\)
Step 2: Find the relationship between \(X_L\) and \(R\)
When \(C\) is removed, \(\tan \phi=\frac{X_L}{R}\).
Given \(\phi=\frac{\pi}{3}\), so \(\tan \frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{X_L}{R}\).
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \tan \frac{\pi}{3}=\sqrt{3}, \text { so } \sqrt{3}=\frac{X_L}{R} . \\
& X_L=R \sqrt{3} .
\end{aligned}
\)
Step 3: Find the phase difference in the LCR circuit
In the LCR circuit, \(\tan \phi=\frac{X_L-X_C}{R}\).
Substitute \(X_L\) and \(X_C: \tan \phi=\frac{R \sqrt{3}-R \sqrt{3}}{R}\).
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \tan \phi=0 . \\
& \phi=0 .
\end{aligned}
\)
Step 4: Calculate the power factor
Power factor is \(\cos \phi\).
\(
\cos 0=1 .
\)
The power factor of the circuit is 1.
A light bulb and an inductor coil are connected to an AC source through a key as shown in the figure below. The key is closed and after some time an iron rod is inserted into the interior of the inductor. The glow of the light bulb: [NEET 2020]
(a)
\(
L=\frac{\mu_0 N^2\left(\pi r^2\right)}{l}
\)
After inserting the iron rod
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
L_{\text {final }}=\frac{\mu N^2\left(\pi r^2\right)}{l} & \mu>\mu_0 \\
e=-L\left(\frac{d i}{d t}\right) &
\end{array}
\)
As \(L\) increases, emf induced across the inductor will increase leaving less voltage across the bulb. Therefore, the glow of the light bulb decreases.
The variation of EMF with time for four types of generators is shown in the figures. Which amongst them can be called AC voltage? [NEET 2019]
(b) For Direct current magnitude and direction remain the same with time. For Alternating current both magnitude and direction change with time.
\(\therefore\) All 4 cases satisfy the condition of AC current.
A circuit when connected to an AC source of 12 V gives a current of 0.2 A . The same circuit when connected to a DC source of 12 V , gives a current of 0.4 A . The circuit is: [NEET 2019]
(a) In a circuit with an AC source, RMS current is given as:
\(I_{\mathrm{rms}}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{rms}} / \mathrm{Z} \dots(1)\)
where, \(\mathrm{V}_{\text {rms }}=\) potential of AC source, \(\mathrm{Z}=\) impedance
Also, \(\mathrm{Z}=\sqrt{R^2+\left(X_L-X_C\right)^2} \dots(2)\)
In a circuit with a DC source, the current is defined as:
\(
\mathrm{I}=\mathrm{V} / \mathrm{R} \dots(3)
\)
Given:
\(
\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{ms}}=12 \mathrm{~V}, \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{rms}}=0.2 \mathrm{~A}, \mathrm{~V}=12 \mathrm{~V}, \mathrm{I}=0.4 \mathrm{~A}
\)
From equation (1) we get,
\(
Z=12 / 0.2=60 \Omega
\)
And from equation (3) we get,
\(
R=12 / 0.4=30 \Omega
\)
\(\because\) There is current in the circuit at a steady state (DC source) hence capacitor cannot be in series with Resistance.
Also, since \(Z>R\) and from equation (3) we can conclude there must be another component in the series which is nothing but Inductor.
\(\therefore\) It is a series LR circuit.
An inductor of 20 mH , a capacitor of \(100 \mu \mathrm{~F}\), and a resistor of \(50 \Omega\) are connected in series across a source of emf, \(V=10 \sin (314 t)\). What is the power loss in this circuit? [NEET 2018]
(a) Impedance \(Z\) in an ac circuit is
\(Z=\sqrt{R^2+\left(X_C-X_L\right)^2}\); where \(X_C=\) capacitive reactance and \(X_L=\) inductive reactance.
Also \(X_C=\frac{1}{\omega C}\) and \(X_L=\omega L\)
\(
\therefore Z=\sqrt{(50)^2+\left(\frac{1}{314 \times 100 \times 10^{-6}}-314 \times 20 \times 10^{-3}\right)^2}
\)
or \(Z=56 \Omega\)
The power loss in the circuit is \(P_{a v}=\left(\frac{V_{r m s}}{Z}\right)^2 R\)
\(
\therefore \quad P_{a v}=\left(\frac{10}{(\sqrt{2}) 56}\right)^2 \times 50=0.79 \mathrm{~W}
\)
Figure shows a circuit that contains three identical resistors with resistance \(R=9.0 \Omega\) each, two identical inductors with inductance \(L=2.0 \mathrm{mH}\) each, and an ideal battery with \(\operatorname{emf} \varepsilon=18 \mathrm{~V}\). The current \(i\) through the battery just after the switch closed is [NEET 2017]
(b)
At time, \(t=0\) i.e., when switch is closed, inductor in the circuit provides very high resistance (open circuit) while capacitor starts charging with maximum current (low resistance).
Equivalent circuit of the given circuit.
Current drawn from battery,
\(
i=\frac{\varepsilon}{(R / 2)}=\frac{2 \varepsilon}{R}=\frac{2 \times 18}{9}=4 \mathrm{~A}
\)
The potential differences across the resistance, capacitance and inductance are \(80 \mathrm{~V}, 40 \mathrm{~V}\) and 100 V respectively in an \(L C R\) circuit. What is the power factor of this circuit? [NEET 2016]
(c) Here, \(V_R=80 \mathrm{~V}, V_C=40 \mathrm{~V}, V_L=100 \mathrm{~V}\)
Power factor, \(\cos \phi=\frac{R}{Z}=\frac{V_R}{V}=\frac{V_R}{\sqrt{V_R^2+\left(V_L-V_C\right)^2}}\)
\(=\frac{80}{\sqrt{(80)^2+(100-40)^2}}=\frac{80}{100}=0.8\)
A \(100 \Omega\) resistance and a capacitor of \(100 \Omega\) reactance are connected in series across a 220 V source. When the capacitor is \(50 \%\) charged, the peak value of the displacement current is [NEET 2016]
(a) Peak voltage: \(V_0=V_{r m s} \sqrt{2}\)
Impedance in a series RC circuit: \(\boldsymbol{Z}=\sqrt{R^2+X_C^2}\)
Peak current: \(I_0=\frac{V_0}{Z}\)
The displacement current is equal to the conduction current in a series RC circuit.
\(
\begin{aligned}
& Z=\sqrt{R^2+X_C^2} \\
& Z=\sqrt{(100 \Omega)^2+(100 \Omega)^2} \\
& Z=\sqrt{10000 \Omega^2+10000 \Omega^2} \\
& Z=\sqrt{20000 \Omega^2} \\
& Z=100 \sqrt{2} \Omega
\end{aligned}
\)
Use the formula for peak voltage
\(V_0=V_{r m s} \sqrt{2}\)
\(V_0=220 \mathrm{~V} \cdot \sqrt{2}\)
\(V_0=220 \sqrt{2} V\)
Use the formula for peak current:
\(I_0=\frac{V_0}{Z}\)
\(I_0=\frac{220 \sqrt{2} V}{100 \sqrt{2} \Omega}\)
\(I_0=\frac{220}{100} A\)
\(I_0=2.2 \mathrm{~A}\)
The peak displacement current is equal to the peak current:
\(I_{d 0}=I_0\)
\(I_{d 0}=2.2 \mathrm{~A}\)
The peak value of the displacement current is 2.2 A.
A small-signal voltage \(\mathrm{V}(\mathrm{t})=\mathrm{V}_0\) sin \(\omega t\) is applied across an ideal capacitor \(C\) [NEET 2016]
(a) When an ideal capacitor is connected with an ac voltage source, current leads voltage by \(90^{\circ}\). Since, energy stored in capacitor during charging is spent in maintaining charge on the capacitor during discharging. Hence over a full cycle the capacitor does not consume any energy from the voltage source.
Power, \(\mathrm{P}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{rms}} \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{rms}} \cos \phi\)
\(\Rightarrow \cos \phi=0\). (as \(\phi=90^{\circ}\) between \(\mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{rms}}\) and \(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{rms}}\) across a capacitor)
Therefore, power consumed \(=0\) in one complete cycle across a capacitor.
Which of the following combinations should be selected for better tuning of an \(L C R\) circuit used for communication? [NEET 2016]
(c) Quality factor of an \(L-C-R\) circuit is given by,
\(
\begin{aligned}
& Q=\frac{1}{R} \sqrt{\frac{L}{C}} \\
& Q_1=\frac{1}{20} \sqrt{\frac{1.5}{35 \times 10^{-6}}}=50 \times \sqrt{\frac{3}{70}}=10.35 \\
& Q_2=\frac{1}{25} \times \sqrt{\frac{2.5}{45 \times 10^{-6}}}=40 \times \sqrt{\frac{5}{90}}=9.43 \\
& Q_3=\frac{1}{15} \sqrt{\frac{3.5}{30 \times 10^{-6}}}=\frac{100}{15} \sqrt{\frac{35}{3}}=22.77 \\
& Q_4=\frac{1}{25} \times \sqrt{\frac{1.5}{45 \times 10^{-6}}}=\frac{40}{\sqrt{30}}=7.30
\end{aligned}
\)
Clearly \(Q_3\) is maximum of \(Q_1, Q_2, Q_3\), and \(Q_4\). Hence, option (c) should be selected for better tuning of an \(L-C-R\) circuit.
An inductor 20 mH , a capacitor \(50 \mu \mathrm{~F}\), and a resistor \(40 \Omega\) are connected in series across a source of emf \(V=10 \sin 340 t\). The power loss in the AC circuit is: [NEET 2016]

& \therefore \quad \mathrm{~V}_{\text {runs }}=\frac{10}{\sqrt{2}} \\
& \mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{C}}=\frac{1}{\omega \mathrm{C}}=\frac{1}{340 \times 50 \times 10^{-6}}=58.8 \Omega \\
& \mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}=\omega \mathrm{L}=340 \times 20 \times 10^{-3}=6.8 \Omega \\
& \text { Impedance, } \mathrm{Z}=\sqrt{\mathrm{R}^2+\left(\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{C}}-\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}\right)^2} \\
& =\sqrt{40^2+(58.8-6.8)^2}=\sqrt{4304} \Omega
\end{aligned}\\
&\text { Power loss in A.C. circuit, }\\
&\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{P}=\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{ms}}^2 \mathrm{R}=\left(\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{rms}}}{\mathrm{Z}}\right)^2 \mathrm{R} \\
& =\left(\frac{10 / \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{4304}}\right)^2 \times 40=\frac{50 \times 40}{4304} \simeq 0.51 \mathrm{~W}

A series \(R C\) circuit is connected to an alternating voltage source. Consider two situations:
(1) When the capacitor is air-filled.
(2) When the capacitor is mica filled.
The current through the resistor is \(i\) and the voltage across the capacitor is \(V\) then: [NEET 2015]
(b)
Current through resistor, \(i=\) Current in the circuit
\(
=\frac{V_0}{\sqrt{R^2+X_C^2}}=\frac{V_0}{\sqrt{R^2+(1 / \omega C)^2}}
\)
Voltage across capacitor, \(V=i X_C\)
\(
=\frac{V_0}{\sqrt{R^2+(1 / \omega C)^2}} \times \frac{1}{\omega C}=\frac{V_0}{\sqrt{R^2 \omega^2 C^2+1}}
\)
As \(C_a<C_b\) \(\therefore \quad i_a<i_b\) and \(V_a>V_b\)
A resistance \(\boldsymbol{R}\) draws power \(\boldsymbol{P}\) when connected to an AC source. If an inductance is now placed in series with the resistance, such that the impedance of the circuit becomes \(Z\), the power drawn will be: [NEET 2015]
(a) For pure resistor circuit, power
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{P}=\frac{V_{r m s}^2}{R} \\
& \Rightarrow V_{r m s}^2=\mathrm{PR}
\end{aligned}
\)
For L-R series circuit, power
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{P}^{\prime}={V}_{\mathrm{rms}} {I}_{\mathrm{rms}} \cos \phi \\
& =V_{r m s} \times \frac{V_{r m s}}{Z} \times \frac{R}{Z} \\
& =\frac{V_{r m s}^2 R}{Z^2}=\frac{P R \times R}{Z^2} \\
& \therefore \mathrm{P}^{\prime}=P\left(\frac{R}{Z}\right)^2
\end{aligned}

A transformer has an efficiency of \(90 \%\) working on 200 V and 3 kW power supply. If the current in the secondary coil is 6 A , the voltage across the secondary coil and the current in the primary coil, respectively, are: [NEET 2014]
(b) Here, Efficiency of the transformer, \(\eta=90 \%\)
Input power, \(P_{\text {in }}=3 \mathrm{~kW}=3 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~W}=3000 \mathrm{~W}\)
Voltage across the primary coil, \(V_p=200 \mathrm{~V}\)
Current in the secondary coil, \(I_s=6 \mathrm{~A}\)
As \(P_{\text {in }}=I_p V_p\)
\(\therefore \quad\) Current in the primary coil,
\(
I_p=\frac{P_{\mathrm{in}}}{V_p}=\frac{3000 \mathrm{~W}}{200 \mathrm{~V}}=15 \mathrm{~A}
\)
Efficiency of the transformer,
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \eta=\frac{P_{\text {out }}}{P_{\text {in }}}=\frac{V_s I_s}{V_p I_p} \\
\therefore \quad & \frac{90}{100}=\frac{6 V_s}{3000} \text { or } V_s=\frac{90 \times 3000}{100 \times 6}=450 \mathrm{~V}

The primary coil of a transformer, when connected to a 10 V -DC battery, draws a current of 1 mA . The number of turns in the primary and secondary coils are 50 and 100 , respectively. The voltage across the secondary coil and the current drawn by the circuit in the secondary are respectively: [NEET 2013]
\(

A coil of self-inductance \(L\) is connected in series with a bulb \(B\) and an \(A C\) source. Brightness of the bulb decreases when [NEET 2013]
(b) By inserting iron rod in the coil,
\(\mathrm{L} \uparrow \mathrm{Z} \uparrow \mathrm{I} \downarrow\) so brightness \(\downarrow\)
Note: Inductive reactance, \(X_L=\omega L\). On inserting iron rod in the coil, \(L\) increases. As a result Impedance \(\mathrm{Z}=\sqrt{X_L^2+R^2}=\sqrt{(\omega L)^2+R^2}\) also increases.
So, Current, \(I=\frac{V}{Z}\) decreases.
In an electrical circuit \(R, L, C\) and an AC voltage source are all connected in series. When \(L\) is removed from the circuit, the phase difference between the voltage and the current in the circuit is \(\tan ^{-1} \sqrt{3}\). If instead, \(C\) is removed from the circuit, the phase difference is again \(\tan ^{-1} \sqrt{3}\). The power factor of the circuit is: [NEET 2012]

\)
When \(C\) is removed, the phase difference between the voltage and current is \(\tan \phi_2=\frac{X_L}{R}\) or \(\tan \frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{X_L}{R}\) or \(X_L=R \tan 60^{\circ}=\sqrt{3} R\)
As \(X_L=X_C\), the series \(L C R\) circuit is in resonance. Impedance of the circuit,

In the given circuit, the reading of voltmeter \(V_1\) and \(V_2\) are 300 V each. The reading of the voltmeter \(V_3\) and ammeter \(A\) are respectively: [AIPMT 2010]
(b) As \(V_L=V_C=300 \mathrm{~V}\), therefore the given series \(L C R\) circuit is in resonance.

where \(X_L=\omega L\) and \(X_C=\frac{1}{\omega C}, \omega\) is angular frequency.
At resonance, \(X_L=X_C\), hence \(Z=R\).

A step-up transformer operates on a 230 V line and supplies a load of 2 ampere. The ratio of the primary and secondary windings is \(1: 25\). The current in the primary is [AIPMT 1998]
(b) \(\frac{E_P}{E_S}=\frac{I_S}{I_P}=\frac{N_P}{N_S}=\frac{1}{25}\);
Here, \(I_S=2 \mathrm{~A}\)
\(
I_P=25 I_S=50 \mathrm{~A}
\)
The primary winding of a transformer has 500 turns whereas its secondary has 5000 turns. The primary is connected to an A.C. supply of \(20 \mathrm{~V}, 50 \mathrm{~Hz}\). The secondary will have an output of [AIPMT 1997]
(c) Turns on primary winding \(=500\); Turns on secondary winding \(=5000\); Primary winding voltage \(\left(E_p\right)\) \(=20 \mathrm{~V}\) and frequency \(=50 \mathrm{~Hz}\).
\(

& \quad \frac{N_s}{N_p}=\frac{E_s}{E_p} \text { or } \frac{5000}{500}=\frac{E_s}{20} \\
& \text { or } E_s=\frac{5000 \times 20}{500}=200 \mathrm{~V}
\end{aligned}

and frequency remains the same. Therefore secondary winding will have an output of \(200 \mathrm{~V}, 50 \mathrm{~Hz}\).
In an A.C. circuit with voltage \(V\) and current \(I\) the power dissipated is [AIPMT 1997]
(a) Power dissipated \(=V_{\mathrm{rms}} \cdot I_{\mathrm{rms}}\)
\(

Hence, power dissipated depends upon phase difference.
In an experiment, \(200 \mathrm{VA.C}\). is applied at the ends of an LCR circuit. The circuit consists of an inductive reactance \(\left(X_L\right)=50 \Omega\), capacitive reactance \(\left(X_C\right)=50 \Omega\) and ohmic resistance \((\mathrm{R})\) \(=10 \Omega\). The impedance of the circuit is [AIPMT 1996]

When the key \(K\) is pressed at time \(t=0\), then which of the following statement about the current \(I\) in the resistor \(A B\) of the given circuit is true? [AIPMT 1995]
(b) Initially, the current will pass through the capacitor (and not through the resistance which is parallel to the capacitor). So effective resistance in the circuit is \(R_{A B}\). Therefore the current in the resistor is 2 mA . After some time, the capacitor will become fully charged and will be in its steady state. Now no current will pass through the capacitor and the effective resistance of the circuit that is
\(
(1000+1000)=2000 \Omega
\)
Therefore final current in the resistor
\(
=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{2}{2000}=1 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~A}=1 \mathrm{~mA}
\)
In an A.C. circuit, the current flowing is \(I=5 \sin (100 t-\pi / 2)\) ampere and the potential difference is \(V=200 \sin (100 t)\) volts. The power consumption is equal to [AIPMT 1995]
(b) Current \((I)=5 \sin (100 t-\pi / 2)\) and voltage \((V)\) \(=200 \sin (100 t)\). Comparing the given equation, with the standard equation, we find that phase between current and voltage is \(\phi=\frac{\pi}{2}=90^{\circ}\)
Power consumption \(P=I_{\mathrm{rms}} V_{\mathrm{rms}} \cos \phi=I_{\mathrm{rms}} V_{\mathrm{rms}} \cos 90^{\circ}=0\)
An series \(L-C-R\) circuit is connected to a source of A.C. current. At resonance, the phase difference between the applied voltage and the current in the circuit, is [AIPMT 1994]
(b) For resonance condition, the impedance will be minimum and the current will be maximum. This is only possible when \(X_L=X_C\).
Therefore \(\tan \phi=\frac{X_L+X_C}{R}=0\) or \(\phi=0\).
In an a.c. circuit, the r.m.s. value of current, \(i_{\text {rms }}\) is related to the peak current, \(\mathrm{i}_0\) by the relation [AIPMT 1994]
\(
\text { (d) } \quad I_{\mathrm{rms}}=\frac{I_0}{\sqrt{2}}
\)
The current \(I\) in an A.C. circuit with inductance coil varies with time according to the graph given below. [AIPMT 1994]
Which one of the following graphs gives the variation of voltage with time?
(a) In an A.C. circuit with inductance coil, the voltage \(V\) leads the current \(I\) by a phase difference of \(90^{\circ}\) or the current \(I\) lags behind the voltage \(V\) by a phase difference of \(90^{\circ}\). Thus the voltage goes on decreasing with the increase in time as shown in the graph (a).
Two cables of copper are of equal lengths. One of them has a single wire of area of cross-section \(A\), while other has 10 wires of cross-sectional area \(A / 10\) each. Give their suitability for transporting A.C. and D.C. [AIPMT 1994]
(a) The major portion of the A.C. flows on the surface of the wire. So where a thick wire is required, a number of thin wires are joined together to give an equivalent effect of a thick wire. Therefore multiple strands are suitable for transporting A.C. Similarly multiple strands can also be used for D.C.
Explanation:
step 1: Compare the resistance of the two cables.
The total cross-sectional area of the second cable is \(10 \times \frac{A}{10}=A\).
Since both cables have the same length and total cross-sectional area, their resistances are equal for DC.
\(
\begin{aligned}
& R_1=\rho \frac{l}{A} \\
& R_2=\rho \frac{l}{10 \cdot \frac{A}{10}}=\rho \frac{l}{A}
\end{aligned}
\)
Therefore, \(\boldsymbol{R}_1=\boldsymbol{R}_2\).
Step 2: Analyze the skin effect for AC.
For AC, the current tends to flow on the surface of the conductor (skin effect).
The multi-wire cable has a larger surface area compared to the single-wire cable.
Therefore, the multi-wire cable is more suitable for AC due to reduced skin effect losses.
Step 3: Conclude the suitability for AC and DC .
Multi-wire cable is better for AC due to the skin effect.
Both cables are equally suitable for DC as they have the same resistance.
Therefore, Multi-wire cable is more suitable for AC, while both cables are equally suitable for DC.

In a region of uniform magnetic induction \(\mathrm{B}=10^{-2}\) tesla, a circular coil of radius 30 cm and resistance \(\pi^2\) ohm is rotated about an axis which is perpendicular to the direction of \(B\) and which forms a diameter of the coil. If the coil rotates at 200 rpm the amplitude of the alternating current induced in the coil is [AIPMT 1988]
(c) \(I_0=\frac{E_0}{R}=\frac{n B A \omega}{R}\)
Given, \(n=1, B=10^{-2} \mathrm{~T}\),
\(
\begin{aligned}
& A=\pi(0.3)^2 \mathrm{~m}^2, R=\pi^2 \\
& f=(200 / 60) \text { and } \omega=2 \pi(200 / 60)
\end{aligned}
\)
Substituting these values and solving, we get
\(
I_0=6 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~A}=6 \mathrm{~mA}
