1.A capacitor having a capacitance of 40 μF is connected across 250 V DC source.

The charging
current will be least_. A. When capacitor is fully charged B. When capacitor is have charged C.
When capacitor is almost 25% charged D. None of the above

The correct answer is A: When the capacitor is fully charged.

When a capacitor is connected to a DC source, it begins to charge. The charging current is

initially at its maximum when the capacitor is uncharged. As the capacitor charges, the voltage
across it increases, and the charging current decreases exponentially. When the capacitor is fully
charged, the voltage across it equals the source voltage, and the charging current drops to zero.
Thus, the charging current is least when the capacitor is fully charged.

2.Which among the following is the accurate definition of conventional current? A. Conventional
current flows from lower potential to higher potential B. Conventional current is the current
which remains static C. Conventional current is created by the flow of ions D. Conventional
current flows from higher potential to lower potential

The correct answer is D: Conventional current flows from higher potential to lower
potential.

Conventional current is defined as the flow of positive charge from the positive terminal to the
negative terminal of a power source, which is equivalent to flowing from a region of higher
potential to lower potential. This concept is used for historical reasons and is opposite to the
actual flow of electrons, which move from the negative terminal to the positive terminal.

3.A certain circuit is composed of two parallel resistors. The total resistance is 1,403 Ω. One of the
resistors is 2 Ω. The other resistor value is A. 1,403 Ω B. 4.7 kΩ C. 2 kΩ D. 3,403 Ω

the correct value is: B: 4.7 kΩ.

4.The material which is suitable for making standard resistors is A. Copper B. Silver C.
Constantan D. Germanium

The correct answer is C: Constantan.

Constantan is an alloy made of nickel and copper, and it is particularly suitable for making
standard resistors due to its stable resistance over a wide range of temperatures. This stability
makes it ideal for precision resistors and other applications where consistent performance is
required.

5.The study of electric charges in motion is called A. Charge mobility B. Electronic mobility C.
Static electricity D. Current electricity

The correct answer is D: Current electricity.

6.The formula for electrostatic potential is A. Electrostatic potential = Work done*charge B.
Electrostatic potential = Work done/charge C. c. Electrostatic potential = Work done+charge D.
d. Electrostatic potential = Work done-charge

The correct answer is B: Electrostatic potential = Work done/charge.

7.The process in which a region is made free from any electric field is known as A. a.
Electrostatic forcing B. b. Electrostatic binding C. c. Electrostatic shielding D. d. None of the
options

The correct answer is C: Electrostatic shielding.

Electrostatic shielding is the process of protecting a region from an external electric field. This is
typically achieved by surrounding the region with a conductor. The conductor redistributes its
charges to cancel the external electric field within the shielded region, thus making it free from
any electric field.

8.The work done in moving a unit positive test charge over a closed path in an electric field is A.
a. Always 1 B. b. Infinite C. c. Zero D. d. Negative

The correct answer is C: Zero.

9.In an electric field, the work done in moving a unit positive test charge over a closed path is
zero. This is because the electrostatic force is conservative, meaning that the total work done by
the force on a charge moving in a closed loop is zero. Essentially, the potential energy at the start
and end points of a closed path is the same.

The rate of flow of electric charge through any cross-section of a conductor is known as A. a.
Electric flux B. b. Electric potential C. c. Electric current D. d. Electric field

The correct answer is C: Electric current.

10.The work done against electrostatic force gets stored in which form of energy A. a. Thermal
energy B. b. Kinetic energy C. c. Potential energy D. d. Solar energy

The correct answer is C: Potential energy.

11.When work is done against the electrostatic force, the energy is stored as electrostatic
potential energy. This energy is a measure of the work required to move a charge within an
electric field to a specific point from a reference point (often infinity). Essentially, it represents
the potential energy that a charged particle has due to its position in an electric field.

Two 3.3 kΩ resistors are in series combination are in parallel with a 4.7 kΩ resistor. What will be the
voltage across the 4.7 kΩ resistors if the voltage across one of the 3.3 kΩ resistors is 12 V A. a. 24 V B. b.

the correct answer is: A: 24 V.

12.The capacity of the parallel plate capacitor increases when A. a. area of the plate is decreased
B. b. area of the plate is increased C. c. distance between the plates increases D. d. None of the
option

The correct answer is B: The area of the plate is increased.

14.Which of the following statements is true A. a. A metal plate can be heated by passing either
a direct current or an alternating current through the plate B. b. A metal plate can be heated by
placing it in a time-invariant magnetic field C. c. A metal plate can be heated by placing it in a
time-variant magnetic field D. d. Both (a) and (c)

The correct answer is D: Both (a) and (c).

15.The force per unit charge is known as A. a. Electric current B. b. Electric potential C. c.

The correct answer is C: Electric field.

16.What happens when a glass rod is rubbed with silk A. a. gains protons from silk B. b. gains

The correct answer is C: gives electrons to silk.

17.What bonds are present in a semiconductor A. a. Monovalent B. b. Bivalent C. c. Trivalent D.

d. Covalent

The correct answer is D: Covalent.

18.What is the main function of a transistor A. a. Simplify B. b. Amplify C. c. Rectify D. d. All

of the above

The correct answer is B: Amplify.

The main function of a transistor is to amplify electrical signals. Transistors are widely used as
amplifiers in a variety of electronic devices, including radios, televisions, and audio equipment.
They take a small input signal and produce a larger output signal, thereby increasing the power
of the signal.
However, transistors can also perform other functions:

• Rectify: Transistors can be used in rectifier circuits to convert alternating current (AC) to
direct current (DC).
• Switch: Transistors are used as electronic switches in digital circuits.
• Simplify: While not a common term associated with transistors, they can simplify circuit
designs by integrating multiple functions into a single component.
