01․ Potentiometer method of DC voltage measurement is more accurate than direct measurement using a voltmeter because
Since the circuit is not loaded, the accurate value of DC voltage is measured.
02․ Assertion (A): A hot wire ammeter has a cramped scale.
Reason (R): The heat is proportional to square of current.
In hot wire ammeter, heating is proportional to square of rms value of operating current, Hence scale is cramped.
03․ The items in Group-I represent the various types of measurement to be made with a reasonable accuracy using a suitable bridge. The items in Group-II represent the various bridges available for this purpose. Select the correct choice of the item in Group-II for the corresponding item in Group-I from the following
Group I:
- P. Resistance in milli-ohm range.
- Q. Low values of capacitance.
- R. Comparison of resistance which are nearly equal.
- S. Inductance of a coil with a large time constant.
- Wheatstone bridge.
- Kelvin double bridge.
- Schering bridge.
- Weins bridge
- Hays bridge
- Carey-foster bridge
Kelvin double bridge is used for measuring low values of resistance (P = 2).
Low values of capacitance is precisely measured by Schering bridge (Q = 3).
Comparison of resistance which are nearly equal is done by Carey-foster bridge (R = 6).
Inductance of a coil with large time constant or high quality factor is measured by Hays bridge (S = 5).
