“Since you have gone off the ________, the ________ sand is likely to damage the car.”

The words that best fill the blanks in the above sentence are

  1. ((a))

    course, coarse

  2. ((b))

    course, course

  3. ((c))

    coarse, course

  4. ((d))

    coarse, coarse

Show Answer
Answer: ((a))

course, coarse

The given sentence has two blanks. The first blank needs a word that means 'path' or 'way' and the second blank needs an adjective that can describe the sand.

Option 1 is correct as course means path or way and coarse means rough which logically and grammatically fit the first and the second blank, respectively.

2

“A common misconception among writers is that sentence structure mirrors thought; the more _________ the structure, the more complicated the ideas.”

The word that best fills the blank in the above sentence is

  1. ((a))

    detailed

  2. ((b))

    simple

  3. ((c))

    clear

  4. ((d))

    convoluted

Show Answer
Answer: ((d))

convoluted

Explanation:

Correct answer: Option 4 (convoluted)

The given sentence states that there is a common misunderstanding among existing authors that the quality of sentence structure closely resembles the thought process or even affects it.

'Convoluted' means something that is extremely complex and difficult to follow. It is generally used in the context of an argument or a story. 

The other options (especially 'simple' and 'clear') do not provide a correct meaning if placed in the blank.

Hence, convoluted is the correct answer.

NOTE: 'Detailed' can imply something that is comprehensive. It does not mean complicated. Hence, it cannot be the correct answer.

The three roots of the equation f(x) = 0 are x = {-2, 0, 3}. What are the three values of x for which f (x - 3) = 0?

  1. ((a))

    -5, -3, 0

  2. ((b))

    -2, 0, 3

  3. ((c))

    0, 6, 8

  4. ((d))

    1, 3, 6

Show Answer
Answer: ((d))

1, 3, 6

The three roots of the equation f(x) = 0 are x = {-2, 0, 3}

f(x) = (x – (-2)) (x – 0) (x – 3)

⇒ f(x) = x (x + 2) (x – 3)

f(x – 3) = (x – 3) (x – 3 + 2) (x – 3 – 3) = (x – 3) (x – 1) (x – 6)

Given that, f (x - 3) = 0

⇒ (x – 3) (x – 1) (x – 6) = 0

⇒ x = 1, 3, 6

An e-mail password must contain three characters.

One character will be one numeral from 0 to 9.

Number of choices =10C1=10= {10_{{C_1}}} = 10

Second character will be upper case letter from the English alphabet.

Number of choices =26C1=26= {26_{{C_1}}} = 26

Third character will be lower case letter from the English alphabet.

Number of choices =26C1=26= {26_{{C_1}}} = 26

We can arrange these three characters in 3! ways i.e. 6 ways.

Total number of distinct passwords = 10 × 26 × 26 × 6 = 40,560

Show Answer
Answer: ((a))

411\frac{4}{{11}}

Total number of children in a class = 12

Given that class has two more boys than girls.

So, number of boys = 7

Number of girls = 5

We need to pick a group of three children randomly so that the group contains more girls than boys.

Case 1: 3 girls and 0 boys

Probability to select 3 girls, P1=5C312C3=10220{P_1} = \frac{{{5_{{C_3}}}}}{{{{12}_{{C_3}}}}} = \frac{{10}}{{220}}

Case 2: 2 girls and 1 boy

Probability to select 2 girls and 1 boy, P2=5C27C112C3=10×7220=70220{P_2} = \frac{{{5_{{C_2}}}{7_{{C_1}}}}}{{{{12}_{{C_3}}}}} = \frac{{10 \times 7}}{{220}} = \frac{{70}}{{220}}

The probability that the group accompanying the teacher contains more girls than boys is,

P=P1+P2=10220+70220=80220=411P = {P_1} + {P_2} = \frac{{10}}{{220}} + \frac{{70}}{{220}} = \frac{{80}}{{220}} = \frac{4}{{11}}

A designer uses marbles of four different colours for his designs. The cost of each marble is the same, irrespective of the colour. The table below shows the percentage of marbles of each colour used in the current design. The cost of each marble increased by 25%. Therefore, the designer decided to reduce equal numbers of marbles of each colour to keep the total cost unchanged. What is the percentage of blue marbles in the new design?

  4. ((d))

    46.25

Show Answer
Answer: ((c))

43.75

Let the total number of marbles = 100

Number of blue marbles = 40

Number of black marbles = 25

Number of red marbles = 20

Number of yellow marbles = 15

And the cost of each marble = 1 unit

The total cost of marbles as per current design = 100 units

The cost of each marble after the cost of each marble is increased by 25% = 1.25 unit

Now, the designer decided to reduce equal numbers of marbles of each colour to keep the total cost unchanged.

Let the number of marbles of each colour to reduce = n

Now, the number of blue marbles = 40 – n

Number of black marbles = 25 - n

Number of red marbles = 20 - n

Number of yellow marbles = 15 - n

The total cost remains same as previous.

⇒ [(40 – n) + (25 – n) + (20 – n) + (15 – n)] [1.25] = 100

⇒ 100 – 4n = 80

⇒ n = 5

Now, the number total marbles = 100 – 4(5) = 80

The number of blue marbles = 40 – 5 = 35

The percentage of blue marbles in the new design =3580×100=43.75;%= \frac{{35}}{{80}} \times 100 = 43.75;\%

P is unable to row when someone else is in the boat. So, P can row during return trip only.

Q is unable to row with anyone else except R. So, Q can row during return and can row forward trip with R.

Trip 1 – Forward trip:

Q and R are involved in this trip and Q rowed the trip.

Trip 1 – Return trip:

R rowed the trip

Trip 2 – Forward trip:

P and R are involved in this trip and R rowed the trip.

Trip 2 – Return trip:

P rowed the trip

Trip 1 – Forward trip:

S rowed the trip

So, R rowed twice.

A single-phase 100 kVA, 1000 V / 100 V, 50 Hz transformer has a voltage drop of 5% across its series impedance at full load. Of this, 3% is due to resistance. The percentage regulation of the transformer at full load with 0.8 lagging power factor is

    4.8

  2. ((b))

    6.8

  3. ((c))

  4. ((d))

Show Answer
Answer: ((a))

4.8

Concept:

Voltage regulation is the change in secondary terminal voltage from no load to full load at a specific power factor of load and the change is expressed in percentage.

E2 = no-load secondary voltage

V2 = full load secondary voltage

Voltage regulation for the transformer is given by the ratio of change in secondary terminal voltage from no load to full load to no load secondary voltage.

Voltage regulation =E2V2E2= \frac{{{E_2} - {V_2}}}{{{E_2}}}

It can also be expressed as,

Regulation \(= \frac{{{I_2}{R_{02}}\cos {\phi 2} \pm {I_2}{X{02}}\sin {\phi _2}}}{{{E_2}}}\)

  • sign is used for lagging loads and
  • ve sign is used for leading loads

Per unit Voltage regulation = %R cos ϕ ± %X sin ϕ

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage drop across series impedance (% Z) = 5%

Voltage drop due to resistance (% R) = 3%

Power factor = 0.8 lagging

We know that, %Z=(%R)2+(%X)2\% Z = \sqrt {{{\left( {\% R} \right)}^2} + {{\left( {\% X} \right)}^2}}

(%X)=(%Z)2(%R)2=5232=4%\Rightarrow \left( {\% X} \right) = \sqrt {{{\left( {\% Z} \right)}^2} - {{\left( {\% R} \right)}^2}} = \sqrt {{5^2} - {3^2}} = 4\%

Voltage regulation = %R cos ϕ ± %X sin ϕ

+ve is for lagging loads

-ve is for leading loads

Voltage regulation = (3) (0.8) + (4) (0.6) = 4.8%

Show Answer
Answer: ((b))

45

Concept:

In a salient pole synchronous motor, the power flow is given by,

P=EVXdsinδ+V22[1Xq1Xd]sin2δP = \frac{{EV}}{{{X_d}}}\sin \delta + \frac{{{V^2}}}{2}\left[ {\frac{1}{{{X_q}}} - \frac{1}{{{X_d}}}} \right]\sin 2\delta

The torque equation is given by

T=602πNS[EVXdsinδ+V22[1Xq1Xd]sin2δ]T = \frac{{60}}{{2\pi {N_S}}}\left[ {\frac{{EV}}{{{X_d}}}\sin \delta + \frac{{{V^2}}}{2}\left[ {\frac{1}{{{X_q}}} - \frac{1}{{{X_d}}}} \right]\sin 2\delta } \right]

Here,

EVXdsinδ\frac{{EV}}{{{X_d}}}\sin \delta is electromagnetic torque

andV22[1Xq1Xd]sin2δ=Reluctance;torque.{\rm{and}}\frac{{{V^2}}}{2}\left[ {\frac{1}{{{X_q}}} - \frac{1}{{{X_d}}}} \right]\sin 2\delta = Reluctance;torque.

Explanation:

As we know that Vt = terminal voltage depends on the load.

Xd and Xq depend on the power factor angle which also depends on the load.

So, we cannot change the value of the three-parameter.

The value of sin 2δ always varies in the range +1 to -1.

For the maximum value of TR sin 2δ should be maximum

⇒ sin 2δ = + 1

⇒ 2δ = sin-1 (1) = 90°

⇒ δ = 45°

Torque angle δ is 45° for maximum reluctance torque to be produced in a synchronous motor.

Concept:

Freewheeling diode:

  • A freewheeling diode placed across the inductive load will provide a path for the release of energy stored in the inductor while the load voltage drops to zero.
  • The freewheeling diode prevents the load voltage from becoming negative. Whenever load voltage tends to go negative, FD comes into play.
  • As a result, the load current is transferred from the main thyristor to FD, allowing the thyristor to regain its forward blocking capability.
  • The advantages are input power factor is improved, load current waveform is improved and better load performance.

 

Explanation:

The given circuit represents a single phase fully controlled rectifier.

Anti-parallel diode works as freewheeling diode. As the freewheeling diode is present in converter, the output voltage can’t be negative whether the converter is working under continuous mode or discontinuous mode. The output current is always unidirectional as it is A.C. to D.C. converter.

Hence, V0 ≥ 0 and i0 ≥ 0 

Note-

For continuous conduction mode : 

V0 ≥ 0 and i0 > 0

In a two-wattmeter method, for lagging load

The reading of first wattmeter (W1) = VL IL cos (30 + ϕ)

Calculation:

Given that,

Show Answer
Answer: ((b))

less than V1V2X\left| {\frac{{{V_1}{V_2}}}{X}} \right|

Given that,

Sending end voltage = V1

Receiving end voltage = V2

Series impedance = Z

reactance = X

When only X is present:

Pmax1=V1V2X{P_{max1}} = \left| {\frac{{{V_1}{V_2}}}{X}} \right|

When Z is present:

Pmax2=V1V2ZV22Zcosϕ{P_{max2}} = \frac{{{V_1}{V_2}}}{{\left| Z \right|}} - \frac{{V_2^2}}{{\left| Z \right|}}\cos \phi

Pmax2 is less than Pmax1

Hence, the steady-steady stability limit for the transmission line will be less than V1V2X\left| {\frac{{{V_1}{V_2}}}{X}} \right|.

Answer: ((c))

P1 < 0, P2 > 0, P3 < 0

Given that,

V1 (t) = 100 cos ωt

V2(t) = 100 cos(ωt + π/18) = 100 cos(ωt +10)

V3(t) = 100 cos(ωt + π/36) = 100 cos(ωt + 5°)

Phasor diagram of all the three voltages as shown in  below fig,

From the above diagram,

V2 (t) is leading V1(t) by 10° and

V3 (t) is leading V1(t) by 5°

V2 (t) is leading V3 (t) by 5°.

We know that active power always flows from a leading angle to a lagging angle.

Hence, current flows from V2 (t) to V1 (t) and V3 (t).

Hence, P2 > 0, P1 < 0 P3 < 0.

    f(x) is differentiable but its first derivative is not continuous x = 0.

  4. ((d))

    f(x) is differentiable but its first derivative is not differentiable at x = 0.

Show Answer
Answer: ((d))

f(x) is differentiable but its first derivative is not differentiable at x = 0.

Given that,

A function f(x) is said to be differentiable at x =a if,

Left derivative = Right derivative = Well defined

i.e.,

 limxaf(x)=limxa+f(x)\rm\lim _{x \rightarrow a^{-}} f'(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow a^{+}} f'(x)

Analysis:

f(x) = x2, x ≥ 0

= -x2, x ≤ 0

f'(x) = 2x, x ≥ 0

= -2x, x < 0

f'(x) = 2|x|

f(x) is continuous but not differentiable at x = 0.

Hence f(x) is differentiable but its first derivative is not differentiable at x = 0.

Option(4) is the correct answer.

Concept:

Virtual ground -

The concept of the virtual ground is stated as if anyone of the i/p terminals is grounded physically the other i/p terminal will also be at ground potential even though, it is not grounded physically.

  • One key feature of an Op-Amp is the differential input, and when put together in a circuit, this can form a virtual ground.
  • The virtual ground concept is helpful for the analysis of Op Amps. This concept makes Op-Amp circuit analysis much easier.

Calculation:

By voltage division, Vb=Vo(R2R1+R2){V_b} = {V_o}\left( {\frac{{{R_2}}}{{{R_1} + {R_2}}}} \right)

By virtual grand concept, Va = Vb = Vin

By applying KCL at Va,

VaVoZiin=0\frac{{{V_a} - {V_o}}}{Z} - {i_{in}} = 0

iin=VaVoZ\Rightarrow {i_{in}} = \frac{{{V_a} - {V_o}}}{Z}

iin=VinVin(R1+R2R2)Z\Rightarrow {i_{in}} = \frac{{{V_{in}} - {V_{in}}\left( {\frac{{{R_1} + {R_2}}}{{{R_2}}}} \right)}}{Z}

iin(Z)=Vin(1R1R21)\Rightarrow {i_{in}}\left( Z \right) = {V_{in}}\left( {1 - \frac{{{R_1}}}{{{R_2}}} - 1} \right)

Viniin=R2ZR1\Rightarrow \frac{{{V_{in}}}}{{{i_{in}}}} = - \frac{{{R_2}Z}}{{{R_1}}}

Answer: ((b))

Concept:

We replace the capacitor with an initial voltage to its s-domain equivalent as shown:

Similarly, an inductor with an initial current of i(0-) is represented as:

Analysis:

Since for the given circuit, the initial voltage and current across the capacitor is zero, the equivalent circuit will have vc(0-) = 0 and i(0-) = 0, and the circuit will be redrawn as:

I(s)=5ss+15I\left( s \right) = \frac{{\frac{5}{s}}}{{s + \frac{1}{5}}}

    -j12Ω

  3. ((c))

    j13Ω

  4. ((d))

    13Ω

Show Answer
Answer: ((a))

j12Ω

Given circuit diagram:

For an infinite ladder, we will replace the common repeating term with the input impedance 

Impedance j5 Ω and -j1 Ω are in series. Therefore the impedance will be j4 Ω 

Now the equivalent impedance Zeq will be

Zeq=j9+zeq(j4)zeq+j4{Z_{eq}} = j9 + \frac{{{z_{eq}}\left( {j4} \right)}}{{{z_{eq}} + j4}}

(zeqj9)(zeq+j4)=zeq(j4)\Rightarrow \left( {{z_{eq}} - j9} \right)\left( {{z_{eq}} + j4} \right) = {z_{eq}}\left( {j4} \right)

zeq2+36j5;zeq=zeq(j4)\Rightarrow z_{eq}^2 + 36 - j5;{z_{eq}} = {z_{eq}}\left( {j4} \right)

zeq2j9zeq+36=0\Rightarrow z_{eq}^2 - j9{z_{eq}} + 36 = 0

(zeqj12)(zeq+j3)=0\Rightarrow \left( {{z_{eq}} - j12} \right)\left( {{z_{eq}} + j3} \right) = 0

zeq=j12;Ω;(or)j3\Rightarrow {z_{eq}} = j12;{\rm{Ω ;}}\left( {or} \right) - j3

Zeq can’t be negative as the given circuit is inductive in nature.

⇒ Zeq = j12 Ω
