Answer
1. (a)
Compare s2 + 7s + 4 = 0 with s2 + 2ξωn + ωn2 = 0

7. (a) A rating of 30 kV is the minimum breakdown voltage at which transformer oil can be safely used in a power transformer.
8. (b) The sensitivity of the potentiometer is defined as the smallest potential difference that is measured by using a potentiometer. The sensitivity of the potentiometer can be increased by decreasing the potential gradient. i.e., by increasing the length of the potentiometer wire.
The sensitivity of the potentiometer can be increased by:
- Increasing the length of the potentiometer wire
- By reducing the current in the circuit by using a rheostat
9. (b) A galvanometer can be converted into a voltmeter by connecting it with a resistance in series so as to increase the overall resistance. A galvanometer can be converted into an ammeter by connecting it with a resistance in parallel which decreases the overall resistance.
