A direct current of \(5~ A\) is superimposed on an alternating current \(I=10sin ~\omega t\) flowing through a wire. The effective value of the resulting current will be:
1. | \(15/2~A\) | 2. | \(5 \sqrt{3}~A\) |
3. | \(5 \sqrt{5}~A\) | 4. | \(15~A\) |
An ideal resistance \(R\), ideal inductance \(L\), ideal capacitance \(C\), and AC voltmeters \(V_1, V_2, V_3~\text{and}~V_4 \)

2. | Reading in \(V_1\) = Reading in \(V_2\) |
3. | Reading in \(V_2\) = Reading in \(V_4\) |
4. | Reading in \(V_2\) = Reading in \(V_3\) |
1. | \(50\) V | 2. | \(50 \sqrt{2} ~\text{V}\) |
3. | \(100\) V | 4. | \(0\) V |
An AC voltage source is connected to a series \(LCR\) circuit. When \(L\) is removed from the circuit, the phase difference between current and voltage is \(\dfrac{\pi}{3}\). If \(C\) is instead removed from the circuit, the phase difference is again \(\dfrac{\pi}{3}\) between current and voltage. The power factor of the circuit is:
1. \(0.5\)
2. \(1.0\)
3. \(-1.0\)
4. zero
An AC ammeter is used to measure the current in a circuit. When a given direct current passes through the circuit, the AC ammeter reads \(6\) A. When another alternating current passes through the circuit, the AC ammeter reads \(8\) A. Then the reading of this ammeter if DC and AC flow through the circuit simultaneously is:
1. \(10 \sqrt{2}\) A
2. \(14\) A
3. \(10\) A
4. \(15\) A
The variation of EMF with time for four types of generators is shown in the figures. Which amongst them can be called AC voltage?
(a) | (b) |
(c) | (d) |
1. | (a) and (d) |
2. | (a), (b), (c), and (d) |
3. | (a) and (b) |
4. | only (a) |
The time required for a \(50\) Hz sinusoidal alternating current to change its value from zero to the rms value will be:
1. \(1 . 5 \times 10^{- 2}~\text{s}\)
2. \(2 . 5 \times 10^{- 3}~\text{s}\)
3. \(10^{- 1}~\text{s}\)
4. \(10^{- 6}~\text{s}\)
In a series \(RLC\) circuit, potential differences across \(R,L\) and \(C\) are \(30\) V, \(60\) V and \(100\) V respectively, as shown in the figure. The emf of the source (in volts) will be:
1. \(190\)
2. \(70\)
3. \(50\)
4. \(40\)
