In the curve above, PQRST represents an alternating voltage of frequency 50Hz. The time interval between points P and R on the graph is

A.

25s

B.

1/50s

C.

In the circuit diagram above, calculate the current in the 12 Ω resistor if the cell has an emf of 12V and an internal resistance of 1Ω

A.

0.8A

B.

1.0A

C.

1.6A

D.

2.4A

Correct answer is D

\(E = I(R + r)\)

\(I = \frac{E}{R + r}\)

\(\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{4}\)

\(R = 4\Omega\)

\(I = \frac{12}{1 + 4} = \frac{12}{5}\)

= 2.4A

In the fig above, XY is of length 1m, The value of R at balance point Z is

A.

3.0Ω

B.

13.3Ω

C.

15.0Ω

D.

30.0Ω

Correct answer is D

At null deflection, p.d across R = p.d across xz

p.d across 20Ω = p.d across zy 

\(\frac{R}{20}\) = \(\frac{60}{40}\)

R = 30Ω
