A dc separately excited motor has constant field current. The armature is fed from a single phase supply through a full converter. When a = 0, speed is 500 rpm. If a = 45°, the speed is likely to be

Answer: D

Average output voltage ∝ cos a and therefore reduced to 0.707 of the value for a = 0. Speed is nearly proportional to voltage.

In a single phase full wave regulator, the firing angles in the positive and negative half cycles are generally

Answer: A

Firing angles are kept equal to get symmetrical output voltage.

88.

A single phase half wave rectifier is feeding a resistive load. When a = 0, dc output voltage is 127 V. When a = 30°, the dc output voltage will be about

Answer: B

NO answer

Answer: B

Once SCR has been triggered the gate has no control. Only external resistance controls the anode current.
