MCQ
Choke coil works on the principle of
  • A
    Transient current
  • Self induction
  • C
    Mutual induction
  • D
    Wattless current

Answer

Correct option: B.
Self induction
b
The choke coil works because it acts as an inductor. When the current passing through changes, as $AC$ currents do, it typically creates a magnetic field in the coil that works against that current. This property, known as inductance.

A sample initially contains only $U -238$ isotope of uranium. With time, some of the $U -238$ radioactively decays into $Pb -206$ while the rest of it remains undisintegrated.

When the age of the sample is $P \times 10^8$ years, the ratio of mass of $Pb -206$ to that of $U -238$ in the sample is found to be $7$ . The value of $P$ is. . . . . .

[Given : Half-life of $U-238$ is $4.5 \times 10^9$ years; $\log _e 2=0.693$ ]

Assertion : The number of electrons in a P-type silicon semiconductor is less than the number of electrons in a pure silicon semiconductor at room temperature.
Reason : It is due to law of mass action.
The beam of light has three wavelengths $4144 \,\mathring A$, $4972 \;\mathring A$ and $6216\; \mathring A$ with a total intensity of $3.6 \times$ $10^{-5}\,Wm ^2$ equally distributed amongst the three wavelengths.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.

Assertion $A$: The potential ( $V$ ) at any axial point, at $2 \mathrm{~m}$ distance ( $r$ ) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector $\vec{P}$ of magnitude, $4 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{C} \mathrm{m}$, is $\pm 9 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~V}$.

(Take $\frac{1}{4 \pi \in_0}=9 \times 10^9 \mathrm{Sl}$ units)

Reason $R$: $V= \pm \frac{2 P}{4 \pi \in_0 r^2}$, where $r$ is the distance of any axial point, situated at $2 \mathrm{~m}$ from the centre of the dipole.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
