Q1. A wire is perpendicular to the plane of the paper. A ring of compass needles surrounds the wire in the plane of the paper with center of ring being the center of the wire .Initially there is no current in the wire. What happens after a steady dc current is established in the wire?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

The current carrying wire has a magnetic field around it and the lines of force are in the form of concentric circles with their centers on the wire.

Q2. In P-N- P transistor operating as an amplifier with common emitter configurations a change in base current from  to  produces a change in collector current from 10 mA to 18 mA. The current gain of transistor is
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Current gain of transistor


Q3. The resistance of a metallic conductor increases due to
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Resistance of a metal of length l , area A is  where n is the carrier density, m the mass of the electron , e the charge of the electron and , the average time between two collisions. at constant temperature, n and  remain constant.  is constant at constant temperature and is called ρ The resistance increases if the length increases or the area decreases.

Q8. A wire of length L carrying current i is placed perpendicular to the magnetic induction B. The total force on the wire is
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

Magnitude of the Force experienced by a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field is . If the angle between the directions of the current and the magnetic field is 90⁰, F=iLB

Q9. A p- type semiconductor can be obtained by adding
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

In P-type doping, boron or gallium is the dopant. Boron and gallium each have only three outer electrons. When mixed into the silicon lattice, they form "holes" in the lattice where a silicon electron has nothing to bond to. The absence of an electron creates the effect of a positive charge, hence the name P-type. Holes can conduct current. A hole happily accepts an electron from a neighbor, moving the hole over a space. P-type silicon is a good conductor.

Q10. The L-C circuit shown in the figure has an inductance L = 1mH and a capacitance C = 10µF. 

The initial current through the inductor is zero, while the initial capacitor voltage is 100 V. The switch is closed at t = 0. The current i through the circuit is:
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.
