Railways General Science & Technology Alternating Current / प्रत्यावर्ती धारा Sample Paper Alternating Current and Electromagnetic Induction Sample Test Paper-10

  • question_answer
    Alternating current cannot be measured by dc ammeter because

    A)  ac cannot pass through dc ammeter

    B)  Average value of complete cycle is zero

    C)  ac is virtual

    D)  ac changes its direction

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] In dc ammeter, a coil is free to rotate in the magnetic field of a fixed magnet. If an alternating current is passed through such a coil, the torque will reverse its direction each time the current changes direction and the average value of the torque will be zero.
