(C) Output remains stable at '1'
(D) Output remains stable at '0' ]
SOL 1.30

From the combinational logic
Let D is input, Qn is present state, Qn + 1 is next state, then
R = D 5 Q, S = D 5 Q
Characteristic equation of R-S flip-flop is given by
Qn + 1 = S + RQn
So,
Qn + 1 = (D + Qn) + (D 5 Qn) Qn
= (D 5 Qn) + (D 5 Qn) Qn
= (D 5 Qn) (1 5 Qn) = (D 5 Qn) = DQ n + DQn
For D = 0 , Qn + 1 = Qn
D = 1, Qn + 1 = Qn

Resolution
`n=4
Rs = 1/10n

Resolution on 1 V range = 1 V # 0.0001 = 0.0001
So, any reading up to the 4th decimal can be displayed. Thus 0.6973 will be
displayed as 0.6973.
Resolution on 10 V range = 10 V # 0.0001 = 0.001 V
So, decimals up to the 3rd decimal place can be displayed. Therefore on a 10 V

Arithmetic properties of numbers
To find the smallest positive integer x such that 2880x is the square of an integer,
first find the prime factorization of 2880 by a method similar to the following:
2880 = 10 # 288
= (2 # 5) # (2 # 144)
= 2 # 5 # 2 # (2 # 72)
= 2 # 5 # 2 # 2 # (2 # 36)
= 2 # 5 # 2 # 2 # 2 # (2 # 18)
= 2 # 5 # 2 # 2 # 2 # 2 # (2 # 9)
= 2 # 5 # 2 # 2 # 2 # 2 # 2 # (3 # 3)

To be a perfect square, 2880x must have an even number of each of its prime
factors. At a minimum, x must have one factor of 5 so that 2880x has even factors
of each of the primes 2, 3, and 5. The smallest positive integer value of x is then 5

A certain clock rings two notes at quarter past the hour, four notes at half past, and
six notes at three-quarters past. On the hour, it rings eight notes plus an additional
number of notes equal to whatever hour it is. How many notes will the clock ring
between 2 : 00 P.M. and 5 : 00 P.M., including the rings at 2 : 00 and 5 : 00 ?
(A) 72
(B) 78
(C) 96
(D) 102
SOL 1.63

We know that the problem involves only simple arithmetic, because the rings occur
in an hourly pattern. You could set up a chart if that helps you see whats going
on, or just take each part at a time by finding the number of rings at each interval
of time and then adding up the total rings at each interval. The total rings on the
hour = ^1 + 8h + ^2 + 8h + ^3 + 8h + ^4 + 8h = 9 + 10 + 11 + 12 = 42 . The clock rings
twice at a quarter past and it does this 3 times, so the total rings at a quarter past
= 2 ]3g = 6 . Likewise, the number of rings at half past = 4 ]3g = 12 and the number
of rings at three-quarters past = 6 ]3g = 18 . Adding up, 42 + 6 + 12 + 18 = 78
MCQ 1.64
In an increasing sequence of 10 consecutive integers, the sum of the first 5 integers

is 660. What is the sum of the last 5 integers in the sequence ?
(A) 578
(B) 624
(C) 665
(D) 685
SOL 1.64

Let the first 5 consecutive integers be represented by x , x + 1, x + 2 , x + 3 and x + 4.
Then, since the sum of the integers is 660 , x + ^x + 1h + ^x + 2h + ^x + 3h + ^x + 4h
= 660 . Thus,
5x + 10 = 660
solve for x
5x = 650
x = 130
The first integer in the sequence is 130, so the next integers are 131, 132
, 133 and 134. From this, the last 5 integers in the sequence, and thus their
sum, can be determined. The sum of the 6 th , 7 th , 8 th , 9 th and 10 th integers is,
135 + 136 + 137 + 138 + 139 = 685
This problem can also be solved without algebra: The sum of the last 5 integers
exceeds the sum of the first 5 integers by 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 = 25 because the 6 th

Which of the following is true about the sequence reactance of transformer ?

(A) Negative and positive sequence reactances are equal to the leakage reactance.
(B) Negative sequence reactance is larger than the positive sequence reactance.
(C) Negative sequence reactance is smaller than the positive sequence reactance.
(D) None of above
SOL 1.25

The positive sequence impedance of a transformer is equal to its leakage reactance.
Transformer is a static device so the leakage impedance does not change with changes
in phase sequence of appliead voltages. Thus the negative sequence impedance is
also equal to its leakage reactance.

Statement for Q. 50-51

A power plant consisting of two generations G1 and G2 supplies a total load of 450
MW. The fuel costs of two generations G1 and G2 are C1 and C2 respectively, given
as following
C1 = 100 + 2P1 + 0.005P 12
C2 = 200 + 2P2 + 0.01P 22
where P1 and P2 are the generation in MW of G1 and G2 respectively.
MCQ 1.50
SOL 1.50
The economic load scheduling of the two units will be

(B) P1 = 180 MW
(A) P1 = 225 MW
P2 = 225 MW
P2 = 270 MW
(C) P1 = 300 MW
P2 = 150 MW
(D) P1 = 240 MW
P2 = 210 MW

The incremental fuel cost of G1
dC1 = 2 + 0.01P
1
dP1
dC2 = 2 + 0.02P
2
dP1
For optimum load division the two incremental costs should be equal, that is
dC1 = dC2
dP1
dP1
2 + 0.01P1 = 2 + 0.02P2
Page 30
Practice paper EE_E
P1 = 2P2
Total load by the two generators
P1 + P2 = 450
From of equation (i) and (ii), we get
P1 = 300 MW, P2 = 150 MW
MCQ 1.51

dC1 = 2 + 0.01P
1
dP1
= 2 + 0.01 # 300 = 5 Rs/MWh
dC2 = 2 + 0.02P
2
dP1
= 2 + 0.02 # 150 = 5 Rs/MWh
Hence the incremental fuel cost of the plant for most economic operation is 5 Rs/
MWh.

Statement for Q. 54-55:

Two generators G1 and G2 are to be operated in parallel to deliver a total current
of 60 A. Generator G1 has a terminal voltage of 280 V on no-load and 240 V when
supplying 40 A current. Similarly the second generator has a voltage of 300 V when
on no-load and 240 V when supplying 50 A of current.
MCQ 1.54
The output voltage of each generator will be

(A) 240 V
(B) 238.2 V
(C) 271.7 V
SOL 1.54
(D) 256.4 V

Generator G1 :
Voltage drop per ampere = 280 240 = 1 A

Let output current is IG , then output voltage will be

VG = 280 1 # IG
Generator G2 :
Voltage drop per ampere = 300 240 = 1.2 A
50
1
Let output current is IG , then output voltage will be

VG = 300 1.2 # IG
For parallel operation, output of each generator would be same i.e.
VG = VG

Page 32
Practice paper EE_E
Chapter 1
280 1 # IG = 300 1.2 # IG

or
IG + 1.2IG = 20
Total current delivered
IG + IG = 60
Solving equation (i) and (ii) we get
IG = 23.6 A and IG = 36.4 A
So the output voltage
VG = VG = 256.4 V

MCQ 1.55
The output power PG and PG delivered by generator G1 and G2 will be

(A) PG = 5.6 kW, PG = 8.7 kW
(B) PG = 9.6 kW, PG = 12 kW
1
(C) PG = PG = 9.3 kW
1
SOL 1.55
(D) PG = 6 kW, PG = 9.3 kW

PG = VG IG = 256.4 # 23.6 = 6.05 kW
PG = VG IG = 256.4 # 36.4 = 9.3 kW
