) is a soft magnetic material suitable for applications involving
Options
A. dc
B. 50 Hz ac
C. ac of a few K Hz
D. ac of a few hundred MHz
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer: dc
Explanation:
Yettrium iron garnet has very low eddy current loss. Hence it is used at frequencies in MHz range.
5. With increase in temperature, the electrical conductivity would
Options
A. increase in metals as well as in intrinsic semiconductor
B. increase in metals but decrease in intrinsic semiconductor
C. decrease in metals but increase in intrinsic semiconductor
D. decrease in metals as well as in intrinsic semiconductor
Show Answer
Scratch Pad
Discuss
Correct Answer: decrease in metals but increase in intrinsic semiconductor
Explanation:
Increase in temperature causes resistivity of metals to increase and resistivity of intrinsic semiconductors to decrease.
Conductivity is reciprocal of resistivity.
6. The resistance of a metallic wire would
Options
A. increase as
f
increase
B. decrease as
f

Correct Answer: increase as
f
increase
Explanation:
As increases the resistance increases due to skin effect.
