Alternating Current
1. r.m.s. value of A.C. is defined in terms of :- 9. In a pure inductive circuit, when potential
(1) heating effect of current difference v = vm sin ωt is applied, then-
(2) chemical effect of current (1) Current reaches its maximum value later
(3) magnetic effect of current than the voltage by one fourth of a period
(4) none of these
(2) Current reaches its maximum value later
2. To express AC power in the same from as DC
power, a special value of current is defined than the voltage by half of a period
and used, is called (3) Current reaches its maximum value
(1) root mean square current (Irms) earlier than the voltage by one fourth of a
(2) effective current period
(3) induced current (4) Current reaches its maximum value
(4) both (1) and (2) earlier than the voltage by half of a period

over DC is- (1) a only (2) a, b (3) c only (4) c, d
(1) Easy and efficient conversion from one 13. The output of a step-down transformer is
voltage to other
measured to be 24 V when connected to a 12W
(2) Lower risk to human life
light bulb. The value of the peak current is:
(3) Most electrical devices work on ac
(4) A variable voltage provides lower average (
(1) 1/ 2 A ) (2) 2A
value than the mean value
