Answers

1. (a)

3. (c) 

4. (a) The ideal op-amp has the following characteristics:
  • Input impedance (Differential or Common-mode) Rin = Infinity
  • Output impedance (open loop) R0= 0
  • Gain A = Infinity
  • Infinite Bandwidth
  • Common-mode voltage gain = 0
  • Vout = 0 when both inputs are at the same voltage, i.e. (zero "offset voltage")
5. (b) Quartz is used in watches as it acts as a piezoelectric oscillator.

6. (c) The fastest type of Analog to Digital converter is the Flash type/Parallel comparator type.

7. (a)

8. (b) Vout = A x Vin

9. (b) DSB -SC is a form of Amplitude modulation where only the sidebands are transmitted and the carrier is suppressed. The advantage is 66% power saving compared to conventional AM. 

10. (d) Inter-symbol Interference: This is the effect of dispersion on optical fibre. Intersymbol interference occurs when the pulse spreading caused by dispersion causes the output pulses of a system to overlap.

Numerical The surface Tension of water in contact with air at 20°C is 0.0725 N/m. The pressure inside a droplet of water is to be 0.02 N/cm² greater than the outside pressure. Calculate the diameter of the droplet of water.

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...
