Assertion (A): A universal RLC bridge has a battery and also a high frequency ac source.

Reason (R): RLC bridge uses a Wienbridge arrangement for measuring capacitance.

A:
Both A and R are true and R is correct explanation of A
B:
Both A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of A
C:
A is true R is false
D:
A is false R is true
Answer: C

Modified De sauty bridge is used to measure capacitance.

In household energy meters the flux of series magnet is in phase with current but the flux of shunt magnet lags the voltage by 88°. The reading of energy meters
A:
will be correct
B:
will have a negative error
C:
will have a positive error
D:
may have positive or negative error
Answer: B

Since angle is less than 90°, reading will be less. Therefore error is negative and correction is positive.

In figure, Za = 100∠50°, Zb = 300∠-90° and Zc = 200∠0°. For balanced condition, Zd will be
A:
600∠ - 40°
B:
600∠140°
C:
600∠ - 140°
D:
150∠140°
Answer: C
