    The given circuit:

    Applying KCL at node A, we get

    VA - V1
    +
    VA
    = αi ........…(i)
    RR

    From figure:
    VA = V2 and
    V1 - VA
    = i

    Now,
    V2 - V1
    +
    V2
    = α
    V1 - VA
    = i
    RRR

    or

    or
    V2
    =
    1 + α
    V12 + α

    Hence alternative (C) is the correct choice.

  1. In the circuit shown in the figure below, for what value of C will the current I be in phase with the sinusoidal source voltage Vs = sin 2t?











  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    The given circuit:

    Given, Vs = sin 2t, means = 2 rad/sec.
    In order to make the current I in phase with the sinusoidal source voltage, the imaginary part of the net impedance offered by the voltage source must be zero.
    So,

    Zeq =
    1
    || (1 + j1)
    j C

    or
    Zeq =
    1
    × (1 + j)
    j2C
    1
    + (1 + j)
    j2C

    or
    Zeq =
    1
    × [1 + j]
    2C
    2C + j (2C - 1)

    2C – 1 = 0 (Since Imaginary part must be zero)
    or
    C = 1/2 F
    Hence alternative (B) is the correct choice.

    j2C
    1
    + (1 + j)
    j2C

    or
    Zeq =
    1
    × [1 + j]
    2C
    2C + j (2C - 1)

    2C – 1 = 0 (Since Imaginary part must be zero)
    or
    C = 1/2 F
    Hence alternative (B) is the correct choice.



  1. In the circuit shown below, what is the voltage across 5Ω resistor i.e. (V1 – V2)

    The given circuit:

    From figure, KCL at node 1

    V1
    +
    V1 – V2
    = 176 …. .......(i)
    75

    Again KCL at node 2
    V2
    +
    V2 – V1
    = 110 …. .......(i)
    105

    From equation (i) and (ii), we get
    V1 = 1190V and V2 = 1160V
    Now, V1 – V2 = 1190 – 1160 = 30V
