Answers of Electrical Machine Test No.1

Q.1   Ans : B
Explanation:
Whenever alternating voltage is applied to the primary of a electrical transformer, there will be a alternating flux through the core of transformer. As this flux will link with secondary winding there will be an induced emf in the secondary winding. The phenomenon of inducing voltage by changing flux is called electrical induction, hence it can be concluded that the windings of a transformer are linked inductively.
 Q.2  Ans: B
Explanation:
Synchronous motors is called so because the speed of the rotor of this motor is same as the rotating magnetic field. It is basically a fixed speed motor because it has only one speed, which is synchronous speed and therefore no intermediate speed is there or in other words it’s in synchronism with the supply frequency.
 Q.3 Ans: A
Explanation:
In a DC series motor, at starting time there is only residual flux in the series field winding because the current is zero. We know that the speed is inversely proportional to flux. Hence, if the residual flux is very low then the speed is enormously high. It damages the internal parts of the motor. So, the DC series motor should not be started on no load.
 Q.4 Ans: C
Explanation:
Frequency of rotor current, fr = s × f 

Q.5 Ans: A
Explanation:
A stepper motor is an actuator that converts electrical pulse signals into angular diaplacements. Once the stepper motor receives an electrical pulse signal, it moves a fixed step angle in a predefined direction. Thus by controlling the pulse number ,the angular displacement can be precisely controlled.
 Q.6 Ans: A
Explanation:
The power factor at no load is low because the magnetizing component of input current is a large part of the total input current of the motor. When the load on the motor is increased, the in-phase current supplied to the motor increases, but the magnetizing component of current remains practically the same. This means that the resultant line current is more nearly in phase with the voltage and the power factor is improved when the motor is loaded, compared with an unloaded motor which has its magnetizing current as a major component of the input current.
 Q.7 Ans: A
Explanation:
the voltage at generation  is usually between 11 kV and 33 kV  becuse of insulation limitation of the generator, as the generator voltage increases we will need to provide extra insulation across the windings & that will make the whole machine bulkier. Despite of that voltage is steped up after generation at suitable level. 
 Q.8 Ans: D
Explanation:
In case, synchronous motor is of salient pole type, additional winding is placed in rotor pole face. Initially when rotor is standstill, relative speed between damper winding and rotating air gap flux in large and an emf is induced in it which produces the required starting torque. As speed approaches synchronous speed , emf and torque is reduced and finally when magnetic locking takes place, torque also reduces to zero.
 Q.9 Ans: A
Explanation:
Transformer doesn't change the wave shape it just changes its value and also frequency remains same so obviously output would be square wave with changed value depends on transformation ratio 
Q.10  Ans: B
