Electrical Engineering Questions and Answers With Assertion Reason Type
Electrical Engineering Solved MCQ
Directions: The following 11 (eleven) items consist of two statements, one labelled the ‘Assertion A’ and the other labelled the ‘Reason R’. You are to examine these two statements and decide If the ‘Assertion A’ and the ‘Reason R’ are Individually true and If so, whether the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion. Select your answer to these items using the codes given below and mark your answer sheet accordingly:
Codes:
(a) Both A and R are true and R Is the correct explanation of A
(b) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
(c) A is true but R is false
(d) A is false but R is true

1. Assertion (A): In dc to dc step Dow chopper, free-wheeling diode is mandatory for RL loads.
Reason (R): A part of energy fed to the RL load is dissipated in the resistance.

Ans:-B









2. Assertion (A): In the slip test for determining the d-axis and q-axis synchronous reactances ‘X d’ and ‘X q’ respectively of a salient pole machine, the stator has to be fed with suitably reduced voltage at the rated frequency and the rotor (with the field circuit open) has to be rotated at a speed slightly different from the synchronous speed, and the fluctuating terminating voltage and armature current are to be recorded for computing X d and X q
Reason (R): during the slip test, a slip frequency - voltage is induced across the open field circuit terminals that could be measured by connecting a voltmeter across these terminals.

Ans:-A
