01․ Which amplifier in used in an electronic amplifier?
Differential amplifier is a type of electronic amplifier that amplifies the difference between two voltages but does not amplify the particular voltage. For this reason, differential amplifier is used in an electronic amplifier.
02․ The circuit in figure is used to measure the power consumed by the load. The current coil and the voltage coil of the wattmeter have 0.02 Ω and 1000 Ω resistance respectively. The measured power compared to the load power will be




03․ A DC potentiometer is designed to measure up to about 2V with a slide wire of 800 mm. A standard cell of emf 1.18 V obtains balances at 600 mm. A test cell is seen to obtain balance at 680 mm. The emf of test cell is
For DC potentiometer E is proportional to the length of the wire
E1/E2 = L1/L2.
1.18/E2 = 600/680.
E2 = 1.34V.
04․ A metal strain gauge has a gauge factor of two. Its nominal resistance is 120 ohms. If it undergoes a strain of 10-5, the value of change of resistance in response to the strain is
05․ A wheatstone bridge cannot be used for precision measurements because errors are introduced into on account of
Wheatstone bridge cannot be used for precision measurement because errors are introduced in contact resistance, thermoelectric EMF and resistance of connecting leads.
06․ The given figure shows wein bridge connection for frequency measurement. C and R are variables and gang together.
For balanced condition the expression for frequency is f = 1/2πCR when

For balanced condition,
Comparing the real and imaginary parts,
As ω = 1/RC.
R1 = R2/2.
For balanced condition,
Comparing the imaginary parts,
After that, comparing the real parts by putting the value of Ld,
Rd = (Rc/Rb).Ra.
08․ In above question no. 8, the value of Ld will be
For balanced condition,
Comparing the imaginary parts,

09․ When a potentiometer is used for measurement of voltage of an unknown source, the power consumed in the circuit of the unknown source under null condition is
As a potentiometer measurement uses null or balance condition, hence no power is required for the measurement.
10․ The calibration of a voltmeter can be carried out by using
In case of calibration of voltmeter, the main requirement is that a suitable stable DC voltage supply is available, otherwise any change in the supply voltage will cause a change in the calibration process of the the voltmeter. For this reason, a potentiometer is used for calibration of voltmeter.
