SECTION-B
2. State faraday?s law of electrolysis and explain them clearly.
3. Explain vapour compression refrigeration cycle and show how cooling effect is
produced? Describe electric circuit of a refrigerator.
4. Describe the duty cycle of main line and suburban trains.
5. How does designing of indoor and outdoor lighting systems differ? Explain method for
designing indoor lighting system.
6. Explain dielectric heating. Explain the factor on which the dielectric loss in dielectric
material depends.
SECTION-C
7. Two lamps are hung at a height of 9 meters from the floor level. The distance between
the lamp is 2 meter. Lamp one is of 500CP. If illumination on the floor vertically below
this lamp is 20 lux, find the candle power of the lamp two.
8. A motor equipped with a flywheel has to supply a load torque of 600N-m for 10 seconds
followed by a no-load period long enough for the flywheel to regain its full speed. It is
desired to limit the motor torque to 450N-m. What should be the amount of inertia of the
flywheel? The no-load speed of the motor is 600rpm and it has a slip of 8% at torque
400N-m. Assume the motor torque characteristics to be a straight line in the range of
operation. Motor has inertia of 10 kg-m

.
9. Explain and draw the typical construction of electrical welding AC and DC set.
