JEE Main2012PhysicsCurrent ElectricityActual
A generator has armature resistance of 0.1 and develops an induced emf of 120 ~V when driven at its rated speed. Its terminal voltage when a current of 50 ~A is being drawn is
Options
- A120 ~V
- B5 ~V
- C115 ~V
- D70 ~V
Correct answer
C. 115 ~V
Step-by-step solution
Armature resistance R=0.1 Induced emf, e=120 ~V Current drown, I=50 ~A We know that, e=V+I R or, V=e-I R=120-50 0.1=115 ~V
