Q2.For a parallel plate capacitor ______________ possible potential difference between the capacitor plates
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution: When a dielectric is introduced between two charged plates of a capacitor having a charge Q and maintained at a potential difference of V, a reverse electric field is set up inside the dielectric due to dielectric polarization. This reduces the electric field in between the plates. The potential is also reduced. Maximum potential is dependent on the charge on the plates. As the charge remains constant, the presence of the dielectric decreases the maximum potential between the plates.
Q4.Consider the Schmidt trigger circuit shown below
A triangular wave which goes from -12 to 12 V is applied to the inverting input
of OPMAP. Assume that the output of the OPAMP swings from +15 V to -15 V.
The voltage at the non-inverting input switches between
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution:
Let the voltage at non inverting terminal be V1, then after applying KCL at non
inverting terminal side we have
If V0 swings from -15 to +15 V then V1 swings between -5 V to +5 V.
Q5.Consider the following assertions.
S1 : For Zener effect to occur, a very abrupt junction is required.
S2 : For quantum tunneling to occur, a very narrow energy barrier is required.
Which of the following is correct ?
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution: No Explaination.
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution:
A shunt resistance of magnitude less than that of the galvanometer is added in parallel to the galvanometer to convert it into an ammeter. The equivalent resistance of a parallel combination is always less than the least value of the resistances in parallel. Ammeters are connected in series to the circuit to allow the entire current of the circuit to pass through them. Its resistance has to be very less- almost negligible, so that it does add on to the resistance in the circuit, thereby changing the current.
The input voltage VDC of the buck-boost converter
shown below varies from 32 V to 72 V. Assume that
all components are ideal, inductor current is
continuous, and output voltage is ripple free. The
range of duty ratio D of the converter for which the
magnitude of the steady state output voltage remains
constant at 48 V is
