Electrical Engineering QUESTION #2143
Question 321
In a power system, the 'Ferranti Effect' occurs when the receiving end voltage $V_r$ is higher than the sending end voltage $V_s$. This is typically observed under which condition?
  • Full load with lagging power factor
  • No load or light load on long lines✔️
  • Short circuit at the receiving end
  • Heavy inductive loading
Correct Answer Logic:
The Ferranti effect is caused by the charging current of the line (capacitance) when it is energized but lightly loaded, leading to $V_r > V_s$.

Correct Answer Logic:
Taking torques about the contact point on the floor. The angle with the wall is \(60°\), so angle with floor is \(30°\). Normal from wall (horizontal) \(\times L\sin30° = mg\times\frac{L}{2}\cos30°\). Wait — using torque about foot: \(N_w\cdot L\sin30° = mg\cdot\frac{L}{2}\cos30°\Rightarrow N_w = \frac{mg\cos30°}{2\sin30°} = \frac{20\times10\times\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{2\times\frac{1}{2}}=100\sqrt{3}\). Friction \(= N_w = 100\sqrt{3}\approx173\ \text{N}\). Answer: \(100\sqrt{3}\ \text{N}\).

Question 328
How many micrograms ($\mu\text{g}$) are in $0.5\text{ milligrams}$ ($mg$)?
  • $50\text{ }\mu\text{g}$
  • $500\text{ }\mu\text{g}$✔️
  • $5000\text{ }\mu\text{g}$
  • $0.0005\text{ }\mu\text{g}$
Correct Answer Logic:
$1\text{ mg} = 1000\text{ }\mu\text{g}$, so $0.5\text{ mg} = 500\text{ }\mu\text{g}$.

Mathematics QUESTION #1268
Question 329
The graph of \(r = 2\cos\theta\) in Cartesian coordinates is:
  • A parabola
  • A circle of radius 2 centred at origin
  • A circle of radius 1 centred at \((1,0)\)✔️
  • A line through the origin
Correct Answer Logic:
Multiply both sides by \(r\): \(r^2=2r\cos\theta\Rightarrow x^2+y^2=2x\Rightarrow (x-1)^2+y^2=1\). This is a circle of radius \(1\) centred at \((1,0)\).

Physics QUESTION #1058
Question 330
An electron (mass \(9\times10^{-31}\ \text{kg}\), charge \(1.6\times10^{-19}\ \text{C}\)) moves at \(c/100\) in field \(B=9\times10^{-4}\ \text{T}\). Electric field \(E\) to prevent deflection:
  • E parallel to B, magnitude \(27\times10^2\ \text{V/m}\)
  • E parallel to B, magnitude \(27\times10^4\ \text{V/m}\)
  • E perpendicular to B, magnitude \(27\times10^4\ \text{V/m}\)✔️
  • E perpendicular to B, magnitude \(27\times10^2\ \text{V/m}\)
Correct Answer Logic:
For no deflection: electric force must balance magnetic force. \(qE=qvB\Rightarrow E=vB=\frac{3\times10^8}{100}\times9\times10^{-4}=3\times10^6\times9\times10^{-4}=27\times10^2\ \text{V/m}\). E must be perpendicular to B (to oppose magnetic force direction). So E perpendicular to B, magnitude \(27\times10^2\ \text{V/m}\) = option (4).

Mechanical Engineering QUESTION #2493
Question 333
In the dynamic equilibrium (D'Alembert) formulation for a rigid body in planar motion, the inertia moment \(M_{in}\) about the center of mass C is:
  • \(M_{in} = I_C\alpha\)
  • \(M_{in} = -I_C\alpha\)✔️
  • \(M_{in} = -m|\mathbf{a}_C|\)
  • \(M_{in} = I_C\omega^2\)
Correct Answer Logic:
The inertia moment is \(M_{in}=-I_C\alpha\), where \(I_C\) is the mass moment of inertia about the center of mass and \(\alpha\) is the angular acceleration.

Mechanical Engineering QUESTION #2394
Question 334
The gain margin (GM) of a control system is defined as:
  • \(GM = 1/|Y_1(j\omega_{pc})|\) where \(\omega_{pc}\) is the phase crossover frequency (where phase \(= -180°\))✔️
  • \(GM = |Y_1(j\omega_{gc})|\) where \(\omega_{gc}\) is the gain crossover frequency
  • \(GM = \angle Y_1(j\omega_{gc})\)
  • The maximum gain before the system becomes underdamped
Correct Answer Logic:
Gain margin: \(GM=1/|Y_1(j\omega_{pc})|\) where \(\omega_{pc}\) is the phase crossover frequency (\(\angle Y_1=-180°\)). In dB: \(GM(dB)=-20\log|Y_1(j\omega_{pc})|\). GM indicates how much the gain can be increased before instability. Typically \(GM\geq6\) dB is desired.

Question 335
The process of transcription involves the synthesis of:
  • RNA from DNA✔️
  • Protein from RNA
  • DNA from RNA
  • RNA from protein
Correct Answer Logic:
Transcription is the process by which a segment of DNA is used as a template to synthesise a complementary RNA molecule (specifically mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase. The central dogma of molecular biology is: DNA → (transcription) → RNA → (translation) → Protein. DNA from RNA would be reverse transcription.
