    WORK SHEET – ALTERNATING CURRENTS

    1. An alternating voltage V(t) = 220sin 100t volt is applied to a purely resistive load of 50 . The
    time taken for the current to rise from half of the peak value to the peak value is
    (a) 5 ms (b) 2.2 ms (c) 7.2 ms (d) 3.3 ms

    2. One small magnet is slowly inserted inside a solenoid with constant velocity and then taken out as
    shown in figure.Which one of the following graphs will best represent emf induced as a function
    of time?

    (a) (b)

    (c) (d)

    3. At resonance, the value of power factor for an LCR series circuit is


    (a) 1 (b) 0 (c) 0.5 (d) ∞

    4. In the given circuit, the readings of voltmeter V1 and V2 are 300 volt each. The readings of the
    voltmeter V3 and ammeter A are respectively:

    (a) 220 V, 2.0 A (b) 100 V, 2.0 A (c) 150 V, 2.2 A (d) 220 V, 2.2 A.

    5. As the frequency of an AC circuit increases, the current first increases and then decreases. What
    combination of circuit elements is most likely to comprise the circuit?
    (a) Inductor and capacitor (b) Resistor and inductor
    (c) Resistor and capacitor (d) Inductor only
    6. A capacitor
    (a) offers easy path to AC but blocks DC. (b) offers easy path to DC but blocks AC.
    (c) offers easy path to both AC and DC. (d) blocks AC.
    7. In an L-C-R circuit, the capacitance is made one-fourth. What should be the corresponding change
    in the inductance so that the circuit remains in resonance?
    (a) 8 times (b) 1/4 times (c) 2 times (d) 4 times

    For question numbers 8, 9, 10 and 11 two statements are given-one labelled Assertion (A) and
    the other labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes (a),
    (b), (c) and (d) as given below.
    (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
    (b) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
    (c) A is true but R is false
    (d) A is false and R is also false

    8. Assertion: Primary coil of transformer is connected to a DC supply and output across secondary
    coil is found to be zero.
    Reason: Transformer works on the principle of mutual induction and hence DC voltage cannot
    be changed with the help of transformer.

    9. Assertion: Practical inductor cannot have zero resistance.


    Reason: Wire of some material is used to make the inductor, and there is always some resistance
    associated with the wire.

    10. Assertion: Average value of ac over a complete cycle is always zero.


    Reason: Average value of ac is always defined over half cycle.

    11. Assertion: The alternating current lags behind the emf by a phase angle of, π/2 when AC flows
    through an inductor.
    Reason: The inductive reactance increases as the frequency of AC source increases.

    12. An AC circuit is shown below, consisting of series combination of an inductor and a


    resistor.
    (i) Calculate the rms value of applied voltage.
    (ii) Also, calculate the total impedance of the circuit if the rms current in the circuit be 2 A.
    (iii) What will be the potential difference in the circuit if the direct current is passed?

    13. A bulb and a capacitor is connected in series across an alternating power supply as shown in the
    adjoining figure. How will the current through bulb changes when capacitor is immersed in a
    dielectric liquid.
    14. At an airport, a person is made to walk through the doorway of a metal detector, for security
    reasons. If she/he is carrying anything made of metal, the metal detector emits a sound. On what
    principle does this detector work?

    15. Study the circuits (a) and (b) shown in the figure given below and answer the following
    questions:

    (a) Under which conditions would the rms currents in the two circuits be the same?
    (b) Can the rms current in circuit (b) be larger than that in (a)?
