1. Charge and voltage associated with electric field are analogous, respectively to __________ and ___________ in magnetic field.
a) flux linkages and current
b) flux density and current
c) flux linkages and voltage
d) MMF and current
Explanation: In magnetic field, the basic terms are flux linkages and current, which are responsible for energy conversion and in electric field, charge and voltage are basically responsible for energy conversion.
dWelec = ψi, for magnetic field
dWelec = vidt=vdq, for electric field
2. Two parallel plates, each of area A = 1m2 are separated by a distance g. The electric field intensity between the plates is 3∗106 v/m. What is the force between the two plates?
a) 1/2π∗103 N
b) 1/8π∗103 N
c) 8π∗103 N
d) 0 N
Explanation: When electric field is applied, the plates move towards each other because of force of attraction by a distance x ⇒ C = ε0A/(g-x)
Wfld(q,x) = 1/2 q2/C = 1/2 q2(g-x)/Aε0
fe = -∂Wfld(q,x)/∂x = 1/2q2x/Aε0
We know, q = DA = ε0EA and ε0 = 10-9/36Π
fe = 1/2 E2ε0A = 1/2∗(3∗106)2∗10-9/36Π∗1 = 1/8π∗103 N
3. The magnitude of electromagnetic or interaction torque, in all rotating machines, is given by ____________
a) Te ∝ (stator field strength)sinδ
b) Te ∝ (rotor field strength)sinδ
c) Te ∝ (stator field strength)(rotor field strength)sinδ
d) Te ∝ sinδ
Explanation: The tendency of two fields (stator field and rotor field), to align themselves in the same direction, is called interaction torque, and it also depends on the torque angle & delta;.
4. In a rotating electrical machine with 2 poles on the stator and 4 poles on the rotor, spaced equally, the net electromagnetic torque developed is ____________
a) maximum
b) zero or no torque is developed
c) minimum
d) none of the mentioned
Explanation: In a machine with 2 stator poles and 4 rotor poles spaced equally, the force of attraction will be cancelled due to the force of repulsion, and hence the net electromagnetic torque will be zero.
5. For the development of electromagnetic torque in a rotating electrical machine, the number of rotor poles must be ____________
a) greater than the stator poles
b) less than the stator poles
c) equal to the stator poles
d) either greater or lesser than the stator poles
Explanation: If the rotor poles are not equal to the stator poles, the net electromagnetic torque will be zero as the force of attraction will be cancelled by the force of repulsion
6. Torque angle ‘δ’ is the angle between ____________
a) rotor field axis and resultant field axis
b) stator field axis and rotor field axis
c) stator field axis and mutual field axis
d) stator field axis and resultant field axis

(i) sinδ
(ii) cosδ
(iii) torque angle δ
(iv) stator field strength
(v) rotor field strength
a) (i), (iv), (v)
b) (ii), (iii), (v)
c) (i), (iii), (v)
d) (ii), (iv), (v)
Explanation: Interaction torque Te∝(stator field strength)(rotor field stregth)sinδ.
8.The basic torque and EMF expression of rotating electrical machines are ____________
a) applicable to DC machines only
b) applicable to AC machines only
c) applicable to both AC and DC machines
d) none of the mentioned
Explanation: Basic torque and EMF expressions are same for both AC and DC machines as the fundamental principles underlying the operation of AC and DC machines are same.
9. The final forms of the expression for generated EMF and torque,for AC and DC machines differ, because ____________
a) the fundamental principles underlying their operation are same
b) the fundamental principles underlying their operation are different
c) their construction details are same
d) their construction details are different
Explanation: Though AC and DC machine have same operating fundamental principles, their construction details differ
10.The voltage equation for the electrical system, in an electromechanical energy conversion device is as follows:
vt=ir+Ldi/dt+i(dL/dθr)ωr = (i)+(ii)+(iii)
What does the (ii) and (iii) terms represent respectively?
a) transformer voltage term and speed/rotational voltage term
b) speed/rotational voltage term and transformer voltage term
c) force voltage term and transformer voltage term
d) none of the mentioned
Explanation: (ii) term = Ldi/dt is known as transformer voltage because it involves the time derivative of current.
(iii) term = i(dL/dθr)ωr is the speed/rotational voltage term because of the presence of speed ωr in it
