The Palghat Gap (or Palakkad Gap), a region about 30 km wide in the southern part of the Western Ghats in India, is lower than the hilly terrain to its north and south. The exact reasons for the formation of this gap are not clear. It results in the neighbouring regions of Tamil Nadu getting more rainfall from the South West monsoon and the neighbouring regions of Kerala having higher summer temperatures.What can be inferred from this passage?Correct answer
(C) The low terrain of the Palghat Gap has a significant impact on weather patterns in neighbouring parts of Tamil Nadu and Kerala
Turn this into a strength.Explore AI-powered practice and doubt support with Success Tracker.Step-by-step solution
The passage states that the Palghat Gap "results in" more rainfall in Tamil Nadu and higher temperatures in Kerala. This directly implies that the physical geography of the gap (its low terrain) influences the weather patterns of the surrounding regions. Option (C) accurately reflects this inference. Option (A) incorrectly suggests the weather causes the gap. Option (B) is not supported as the text only describes the gap itself as low-lying. Option (D) suggests a correlation between temperature and rainfall that is not mentioned in the passage.7

Geneticists say that they are very close to confirming the genetic roots of psychiatric illnesses such as depression and schizophrenia, and consequently, that doctors will be able to eradicate these diseases through early identification and gene therapy. On which of the following assumptions does the statement above rely?Correct answer
(B) Certain psychiatric illnesses have a genetic basis
Turn this into a strength.Explore AI-powered practice and doubt support with Success Tracker.Step-by-step solution
The statement concludes that doctors will be able to eradicate psychiatric illnesses through gene therapy based on the premise that geneticists are close to confirming their genetic roots. This conclusion logically depends on the assumption that these illnesses actually have a genetic basis. If they did not, gene therapy would not be a viable method for eradication. Therefore, option (B) is the necessary assumption.8

For a periodic square wave, which one of the following statements is TRUE?Correct answer
(C) The Fourier series coefficients exist and the reconstruction converges at most points.
Turn this into a strength.Explore AI-powered practice and doubt support with Success Tracker.Step-by-step solution
A periodic square wave satisfies the Dirichlet conditions: it is absolutely integrable over a period, has a finite number of maxima and minima, and a finite number of finite discontinuities. Therefore, its Fourier series coefficients exist. According to Dirichlet's theorem, the Fourier series (reconstruction) converges to the function value at every point of continuity. At points of jump discontinuity, it converges to the average of the left and right limits. Since a square wave has jump discontinuities, the reconstruction converges to the original function at most points (specifically, everywhere except at the discontinuities).21

The undesirable property of an electrical insulating material isCorrect answer
(B) high relative permittivity
Turn this into a strength.Explore AI-powered practice and doubt support with Success Tracker.Step-by-step solution
High relative permittivity () is generally undesirable for insulation in AC systems because it increases the capacitance of the insulation.

Figure shows four electronic switches (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv). Which of the switches can block voltages of either polarity (applied between terminals ‘a’ and ‘b’) when the active device is in the OFF state?
Correct answer
(C) (ii) and (iii)
Turn this into a strength.Explore AI-powered practice and doubt support with Success Tracker.Step-by-step solution
In power electronics, devices that can block voltages of both polarities in the OFF state are called symmetric blocking devices.1.Switch (i): A transistor (IGBT/MOSFET) with an anti-parallel diode. It can block forward voltage but the diode conducts in reverse. Thus, it blocks only one polarity.2.Switch (ii): A transistor in series with a diode. The diode blocks reverse voltage, and the transistor blocks forward voltage when OFF. This configuration blocks both polarities.3.Switch (iii): A GTO (Gate Turn-Off thyristor) or SCR. These are inherently symmetric blocking devices (unless they are of the asymmetric type, but the standard symbol implies blocking capability in both directions).4.Switch (iv): Two transistors with anti-parallel diodes connected in anti-parallel. This is a bidirectional conducting switch. In the OFF state, one of the diodes will always be forward-biased depending on the polarity of , so it cannot block both polarities.Therefore, switches (ii) and (iii) can block voltages of either polarity.36

A three phase synchronous generator is to be connected to the infinite bus. The lamps are connected as shown in the figure for the synchronization. The phase sequence of bus voltage is R-Y-B and that of incoming generator voltage is R'-Y'-B'.It was found that the lamps are becoming dark in the sequence . It means that the phase sequence of incoming generator is
Correct answer
(A) opposite to infinite bus and its frequency is more than infinite bus
Turn this into a strength.Explore AI-powered practice and doubt support with Success Tracker.Step-by-step solution
The lamps are connected between the bus and the incoming generator as follows:- Lamp : between phase R and phase R'
- Lamp : between phase Y and phase B'
- Lamp : between phase B and phase Y'
1.Phase Sequence Analysis: If the phase sequence of the incoming generator were the same as the bus (R-Y-B), and the lamps were connected between corresponding phases (R-R', Y-Y', B-B'), all lamps would brighten and darken simultaneously. However, the connections are crossed ( to B', to Y').2.Sequence of Darkening: The sequence indicates the relative rotation of the generator phasors with respect to the bus phasors.3.Opposite Sequence: For the lamps to darken in a sequence when crossed as shown, the phase sequence of the incoming generator must be opposite to that of the bus (i.e., R'-B'-Y'). In this case, R' corresponds to R, B' corresponds to Y, and Y' corresponds to B.4.Frequency Analysis: The sequence specifically occurs when the incoming generator frequency is higher than the bus frequency (), causing the generator phasors to 'overtake' the bus phasors in that specific order given the crossed connections.Therefore, the phase sequence is opposite to the infinite bus and its frequency is more than the infinite bus.50
