Answers

1. (a) 28 = 256 (without edges)

2. (c)

3. (a) 

Resonant frequency
{f_r} = \frac{1}{{2\pi \sqrt {LC} }} = \frac{1}{{2x3.14\sqrt {20x{{10}^{ - 3}}x5x{{10}^{ - 6}}} }} = 0.50kHz
Quality factor
Q = \frac{1}{R}\sqrt {\frac{L}{C}}  = \frac{1}{{10x{{10}^3}}}\sqrt {\frac{{20x{{10}^{ - 3}}}}{{5x{{10}^{ - 6}}}}}  = 0.632x{10^{ - 2}}
Bandwidth
BW = \frac{{{f_r}}}{Q} = \frac{{0.50}}{{0.632x{{10}^{ - 2}}}} = 80kHz

4. (d) 
See the following figure


Here 
{h_{12}} = {\left. {\frac{{{V_1}}}{{{V_2}}}} \right|_{{I_1} = 0}} = \frac{{{R_B}}}{{{R_B} + {R_C}}} and
{h_{22}} = {\left. {\frac{{{I_2}}}{{{V_2}}}} \right|_{{I_1} = 0}} = \frac{1}{{{R_B} + {R_C}}}

Hence 
{h_{22}} = \frac{1}{{{R_B} + {R_C}}} = \frac{1}{{20 + 0}} = 0.05

5. (a) Mmax = √L1L2 = √6 x 6 = 6 mH

6. (b) 

tr = ln 9/a = 2.2/12 = 0.18
ts = 3.91/a = 3.91/12 = 0.33

7. (d) 

{e_{ramp}}(\infty ) = \frac{{15}}{{(10x20x30)/(25x35)}} = 2.1875

8. (c)
Characteristic equation: s3 + 3s2 + 2s + k = 0
By applying the Routh tabulation method,

For the system to become stable, the sign changes in the first column of the Routh table must be zero.
6 - K > 0 and K > 0
0 < K < 6

9. (a)

10. (b) Use mason’s gain formula to solve the signal flow graph and by using mason’s gain formula transfer function from the signal flow graph can be calculated which relates the forward path gain to the various paths and loops.

Design of Electrical Systems (Solved Numerical Problems)

Important note There is something wrong with this question paper. It seems that instead of "Design of Electrical Systems" the IEI has given problems from "Electrical Machines". You should raise a complaint to director_eea@ieindia.org in this regard. Numerical A 120 V DC shunt motor draws a current of 200A. The armature resistance is 0.02 ohms and the shunt field resistance is 30 ohms. Find back emf. If the lap wound armature has 90 slots with 4 conductors per slots, at what speed will the motor run when flux per pole is 0.04 Wb?​ (AMIE Summer 2023, 8 marks) Solution The back EMF (E b ) of a DC motor can be calculated using the formula: E b = V - I a R a   Given: V = 120 V I a = 200 A R a = 0.02 ohms Substituting the values into the formula: E b = 120 − 200 × 0.02 = 120 − 4​ = 116 V Now, let's calculate the speed (N) at which the motor will run using the given flux per pole (φ p ). The formula to calculate the speed of a DC motor is: N = 60×E b /(P×φ p ) Wh...
