Interpole flux should be sufficient to (a) neutralise the commutating self induced e.m.f. (b) neutralise the armature reaction flux (c) neutralise both the armature reaction flux as well as commutating e.m.f. induced in the coil (d) Perform none of the above functions 4. D.C. generator generally preferred for charging automobile batteries is (a) Series generator (b) shunt generator (c) long shunt compound generator (d) any of'the above 5. In a D.C. generator the number of mechanical degrees and electrical degrees will be the same when (a) r.p.m. is more than 300 (c) number of poles is 4 (b) r.p.m. is less than 300 (d) number of poles is 2 6. In D.C. generators the polarity of the interpoles (a) is the same as that of the main pole ahead (b) is the same as that of the immediately preceding pole (c) is opposite to that of the main pole ahead (d) is neutral as these poles do not play part in generating e.m.f. 7. The e.m.f. generated in a D.C. generator is directly proportional to (a) flux/pole (b) speed of armature (c) number of poles (d) all of the above 8. In a D.C. generator the magnetic neutral axis coincides with the geometrical neutral axis, when (a) there is no load on|he generator (b) the generator runs on full load (c) the generator runs on overload (d) the generator runs on designed speed 9. In a D.C. generator in order to reduce sparking at brushes, the self-induced e.m.f. in the coil is neutralised by all of the following except (a) interpoles (b) dummy coils (c) compensating winding (d) shifting of axis of brushes 10. In D.C. generators on no-load, the air gap flux distribution in space is (a) sinusoidal (b) triangular (c) pulsating (d) flat topped 11. A shunt generator running at 1000 r.p.m. has generated e.m.f. as 200 V. If the speed increases to 1200 r.p.m., the generated e.m.f. will be nearly....... (a) 150 V (b) 175 V (c) 240 V (d) 290 V 12. If a shunt generator fails to build up any voltage at no-load, the reason may be that…… a) there is no residual magnetism b) field coil may be connected in reverse direction c) its field resistance is more than the critical resistance d) all or any one of the above 13. If a D.C. generator fails to build up the probable cause could not be (a) imperfect brush contact (b) field resistance less than the critical resistance (c) no residual magnetism in the generator (d) faulty shunt connections tending to reduce the residual magnetism 14. Flashing the field of D.C. generator means (a) neutralising residual magnetism (b) creating residual magnetism by a D.C. source (c) making the magnetic losses of forces parallel (d) increasing flux density by adding extra turns of windings on poles 15.

A cumulatively compounded long shunt generator when operating as a motor will be (a) cumulatively compounded long shunt (b) differentially compounded long shunt (c) cumulatively compounded short shunt (d) differentially compounded short shunt 19. In a D.C. generator in case the resistance of the field winding is increased, then output voltage will (a) increase (b) decrease (c) remain unaffected (d) fluctuate heavily 20. In case of a flat compounded generator (a) voltage generated is less than the rated voltage (b) generated voltage is proportional to the load on the generator (c) voltage remains constant irrespective of the load (d) speed varies in proportion to the load on the generator 21.

In a level compounded D.C. generator, full load terminal voltage is (a) Negligibly low (b) equal to no-load terminal voltage (c) More than no-load terminal voltage (d) less than no-load terminal voltage 24. The terminal voltage of a D.C. shunt generator drops on load because of all of the following reasons except (a) armature reaction (b) armature resistance drop (c) Field weakening due to armature reaction and armature (d) commutation 25.
