The following question based on electric current and magnetism topic of general science mcq

Questions : An n-p-n transistor conducts when

(a) both collector and emitter are positive with respect to the base

(b) collector is positive and emitter is negative with respect to the base

(c) both collector and emitter are negative with respect to the base

(d) collector is positive and emitter is at same potential as the base

The correct answers to the above question in:

Answer: (b)

When the collector is positive and emitter is negative w.r.t. base, it causes the forward biasing for each junction, which causes conduction of current.

Question : 2

Consider the following statements regarding a motor car battery:

  1. The voltage is usually 12 V.
  2. Electrolyte used is hydrochloric acid.
  3. Electrodes are lead and copper.
  4. Capacity is expressed in ampere-hour.
Which of the above statements are correct?

a) 3 and 4

b) 1 and 2

c) 2 and 3

d) 1 and 4

Answer: (d)

In case of motor car battery or automotive batteries a nominal 12-volt potential difference is provided by connecting six galvanic cells in series. Capacity of these batteries is expressed in ampere-hour.

Electrolyte used is a solution of about 35% sulphuric acid and 65% water and electrodes used are plates of lead and separate plates of lead dioxide.
