This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Ps=60W, Is= 0.54 A

P=VI, V= 60/0.54= 110V

Voltage in the secondary is less than voltage in primary so transformer is step down transformer

As transformation ratio is, k = Es/Ep= Ip/Is

110/220=Ip/0.54A

Ip= 0.27A

L= 0.01H

R= 1ohm

Voltage =200V

Frequency = 50Hz

Z= R2+XL2 = 12+ (2*3.14*50*0.01)2 = 10.86 =3.3ohm

tan =wLR = 2πfLR=2*3.14*50*0.011 = 3.14

 = tan-13.14=72

 =72 π180rad

? t =  /w= 72π180*2π*50 = 1250 s

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

For a Direct Current (DC),

1ampere= 1coulomb/sec

An AC current changes direction with the source frequency and the attractive force would average to zero. Thus, the AC ampere must be defined in terms of some property that is independent of the direction of current.

Joule's heating effect is such property and hence it is used to define rms value of AC.

(a) We know that P= VI

that is curve of power will be having maximum amplitude, equals to multiplication of amplitudes of voltage (V)and current (I) curve. So, the curve will be represented by A.

(b) As shown by shaded area in the diagram, the full cycle of the graph consists of one positive and one negative symmetrical area. Hence average power over a cycle is zero.

(c) As the average power is zero, hence the device may be inductor (L) or capacitor (C) or the series combination of L and C.

In the figure

Band width = w2-w1 where these two corresponds to frequencies at which magnitude of current is 1/ 2 times of maximum value

IrmsImax2 = 1/ 2 = 0.7A

From the diagram the corresponding frequencies are 0.8 and 1.2rad/s

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

E=E0sinwt

And current I=I0sin (wt +- )

Power, P= EI = E0sinwt = E0I0sinwtsin (wt+  )

E0I02  [cos -cos (2wt+) ]………… (1)

Pav= V02I02 cos  =VrmsIrmscos  ………. (2)

From eqn 1 ……But when cos  < cos (2wt+∅)

P<0 power can be nagative of an AC source

From eqn 2……… Pav>0

cos  =R/Z>0 average power can not be negative

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(Irms)a= VrmsR = VR

(Irms)b= VrmsZ = VR2+ (XL-XC)2

When  (Irms)a = (Irms)b

Then R= R2+ (XL-XC)2

XL=Xc resonance condition

As Z>R  (Irms)a (Irms)b = R2+ (XL-XC)2R = ZR >1

(Irms)a > (Irms)b

This is a short answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Inductive reactance XL= 2 πϑ L

And capacitive reactance Xc= 12πϑC

For very high frequencies XL= infinity and Xc=0

When reactance of the circuit is infinite it will be considered as open circuit . when reactance of a circuit is zero it will be considered as short circuited.

So C1, C2 = shorted and L1, L2=opened

So Reff= R1+R2
