4. Inverse transducer is system which converts _________________
a) Electrical quantity to non-electrical quantity
b) Non-electrical quantity to electrical quantity
c) Electrical quantity to electrical quantity itself
d) Non- electrical quantity to non-electrical quantity itself
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Transducers are devices which transfers measurand which will be a non-electrical quantity to electrical quantity. Inverse transducers are the devices operating just opposite to transducers.

5. In a PMMC device what change will happen to torque, if flux density increased?
a) Increases
b) Decreases
