Electrical Engineering Questions and Answers


86)

The inductance of an iron-core coil decreases if


Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Flux is directly proportional to no.of turns.

87)

An 18 V power supply is connected across a coil with a winding resistance of 180 Ω. Current flow in the coil is


Answer: Option C

Explanation:

I = V/R.
= 18/180.
= 0.1A or 100mA.

88)

Three 15 mH inductors are in series. The total inductance is


Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The total inductance=L1+L2+L3
=15+15+15
The total inductance = 45 mH

89)

When the current through an inductor decreases, the amount of energy stored in the electromagnetic field


Answer: Option B

Explanation:

As energy stored in a inductor=1/2*L*I^2 so if current decreases energy stored also decreases.

90)

The current through a 120 mH coil is changing at a rate of 150 mA/s. The voltage induced across the coil is


Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The inductance is 120 mH = 120*10^-3H.

The current is 150 mA/sec =150*10^-3A/sec.

V = L(di/dt).

= (120*10^-3)*(150*10^-3).

= 0.0018v.+ = 18mV
