Question 1

A high swamping resistance is often connected in series with the coil of the ammeter. What is the purpose of using this swamping resistance?

Question 2

An ammeter ranging (0-30) A has a guaranteed accuracy of 1 percent of full scale reading. The current measured by this instrument is 8 A. Determine the limiting error in percentage.

Question 3

An electrically deflected Cathode Ray Tube has a final anode voltage of 2000 V and parallel deflecting plates 1.5 cm long and 5 mm apart. If the screen is 50 cm from the centre of deflecting plates, find velocity of beam _______X106(in m/sec).

Question 4

Consider the following statements regarding phase measurement with the help of CRO.
A) Lissajous pattern for ellipse 0<ɸ<90˚ and rotation is anticlockwise.
B) Lissajous pattern for straight line ɸ=0˚ (or) 360˚ and the slope is positive.
C) Lissajous pattern for circle 180<ɸ<360 and direction of rotation is anticlockwise.
D) Lissajous pattern for ellipse 180<ɸ<360˚ and rotation is clockwise.
Which of the following option is correct?

Question 5

A Maxwell’s capacitance bridge is used to measure an unknown inductions in comparison with capacitance. The various values at balance .

R2 = 400Ω; R3 = 600 Ω; R4 = 1000Ω

C4 = 0.5μF

Then the value of storage factor of coil is _________.
