MCQ on DC Motor
Que.1 Which of the following is not a part of stator of d.c. motor?
- armature
- pole core
- pole shoe
- field winding
✔ View Answer
Option 1: armature
Que.2 Which of the following is not a part of rotor of d.c. motor?
- armature
- commutator
- shaft
- pole shoe
✔ View Answer
Option 4: pole shoe
Explanation: Pole shoe, pole core and field windings are stationary so they are stator assembly.Que.3 __________ is used to determine the direction of rotation of d.c. motor.
- Faraday’s law
- Lenz law
- Fleming’s right hand rule
- Fleming’s left hand rule
✔ View Answer
Option 4: Fleming's left hand rule
Que.4 __________ is used to provide power to the rotor of d.c. motor.
- Carbon brush
- Commutator
- Field magnet
- Yoke
✔ View Answer
Option 1: Carbon brush
Que.5 In Fleming’s Left Hand rule, thumb indicates the direction of ________.
- current
- magnetic field
- force applied on conductor
- emf produced
✔ View Answer
Option 3: force applied on conductor
Que.6 The direction of d.c. series motor can be changed by
i. Interchanging supply terminals
ii. Interchanging field terminals
- Only i
- Both i and ii
- Either i or ii
- None of the above
✔ View Answer
Option 3: Either i or ii
Explanation:The direction of d.c. series motor can be changed by interchanging supply or interchanging field terminals. But only one thing should be done at a time otherwise direction of rotation will not change.Que.7 Which of the following is not a part of field magnets?
- Field winding
- Armature
- Pole shoe
- Pole core
✔ View Answer
Option 2: Armature
Que.8 High grade silicon steel used in armature core of d.c. motors to reduce,
i. Hysteresis loss
ii. Eddy current loss
iii. Copper loss
- All of the above
- i and ii only
- ii and iii only
- i and iii only
✔ View Answer
Option 2: i and ii only
Explanation: Copper loss occurs in winding therefore no question about occuring in core.Que.9 Which of the following are purpose of the yoke in d.c. motor?
i. Acts as frame of the machine
ii. Mechanical support
iii. low reluctance for magnetic flux
- None of the above
- only i and ii
- All of the above
- only i
✔ View Answer
Option 3: All of the above
Que.10 Identify the correct statement/s.
i. In lap winding number of parallel paths, A= number of poles, P i.e. A=P.
ii. In wave winding number of parallel paths, A=4
- Both statements are correct.
- Both statements are wrong.
- Only statement i is correct.
- Only statement ii is correct.
✔ View Answer
Option 3: Only statement i is correct.
Explanation:In wave winding number of parallel paths are 2.
Que.11 If an AC supply is applied to DC motor then
- it will burn.
- it will run with lower speed.
- it will run with normal speed.
- it will run with higher speed.
✔ View Answer
Option 1: it will burn.
Que.12 While Faraday’s law tells us the __________ of the e.m.f. produced, Lenz’s law tells us the _________ that current will flow.
- Quality, Opposition
- Direction, Magnitude
- Magnitude, Direction
- Opposition, Quality
✔ View Answer
Option 3: Magnitude, Direction
Que.13 The armature of d.c. motor is laminated _____ .
