Q: An ideal op-amp has
A) Infinite gain
B) All of these
C) Zero output impedance
D) Infinite input impedance
✅ Correct Answer: B
Explanation: An ideal op-amp is assumed to have infinite gain, infinite input impedance, and zero output impedance
Q: Increasing frequency in an RC circuit affects capacitive reactance how
A) It increases
B) It decreases
C) Depends on resistor value
D) No change
✅ Correct Answer: B
Explanation: Capacitive reactance (Xc) = 1 / (2πfC), so it decreases with frequency
Q: In a power system, the term ‘load shedding’ refers to
A) Stabilizing voltage
B) Increasing load capacity
C) Intentional power cut
D) Turning off appliances
✅ Correct Answer: C
Explanation: Load shedding helps balance demand and supply by reducing load
Q: Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law is based on
A) Conservation of charge
B) Conservation of energy
C) Newton’s law
D) Ohm’s Law
✅ Correct Answer: B
Explanation: KVL states that the total voltage around any closed loop is zero, conserving energy
Q: The primary use of a transformer is to
A) Change AC voltage levels
B) Increase resistance
C) Convert DC to AC
D) Measure current
✅ Correct Answer: A
Explanation: Transformers transfer electrical energy between circuits, adjusting AC voltage
