... Answer is C)
Watch the Video.


2. The temperature co-efficient of an intrinsic semiconductor is ?




... Answer is C)
Intrinsic semiconductors
In the intrinsic semiconductor the valence band is full, but the conduction band is empty at very low temperatures. The energy gap between the two bands is so very small that electrons can jump across it by the addition of thermal energy alone or even light energy of a suitable wavelength. Heating the specimen or shining a light on it maybe sufficient to cause electrical conduction. The conductivity increases with temperature as more and more electrons are liberated. Intrinsic semiconductors have negative temperature coefficients of resistance.



Extrinsic semiconductors
These are semiconductors to which a very small amount of impurity has been added, this process is called doping. Doping with an impurity can have quite marked effects on the electrical properties of the material. The addition of one impurity atom in one hundred million will increase the conductivity of germanium by twelve times at 300 K.


3. A 4 pole 1200 rpm DC lap wound generator has 1520 conductors. If the flux per pole is 0.01 weber, the emf of generator is ?




... Answer is B)
EMF Of generator is given by

E = PΦZN/60A

Φ = flux per pole in Weber

P = number of poles

Z = total number of armature conductor

N = rotation speed of the armature in revolution per minute (r.p.m)

A = number of parallel paths (Number of parallel paths in lap winding, A = P)

E = (4 x 0.01 x 1520 x 1200)/(60 x 4)

= 304 V.


4. In a 3-phase induction motor starting torque will be maximum when ?




... Answer is B)
when slip s = R2 / X2, the torque will be maximum and this slip is called maximum slip Sm and it is defined as the ratio of rotor resistance to that of rotor reactance.


NOTE: At starting S = 1, so the maximum starting torque occur when rotor resistance is equal to rotor reactance.
