Front Back
A constant voltage source has a high internal resistance. (True or False)
False
Cells connected in series increase the output voltage. (True or False)
True
Cells are connected in parallel to increase the current capacity. (True or False)
True
A secondary cell can be recharged, but a primary cell cannot be recharged. (True or False)
True
The shelf life of most primary cells can be extended by storing them in a low-temperature environment. (True or False)
True
The internal resistance, ri, of a generator can be measured directly by connecting an ohmmeter across the output of the generator. (True or False)
False
For the lead-acid wet cell, lower temperatures reduce the current capacity and voltage output. (True or False)
True
When RL=ri, the efficiency of power transfer from generator to load equals 100%. (True or False)
False
The XC of a capacitor decreases as the frequency increases. (True or False)
True
The total XC of a capacitive reactances in series equals the sum of the individual values, as for series resistances. (True or False)
True
At the same frequency, a larger capacitance has more XC. (True or False)
False
Two 500 Ohm XC values in parallel have a combined reactance of 250 Ohm. (True or False)
True
Two 1 kOhm XC values in series have a total reactance of 1.414 kOhm. (True or False)
False
Capacitors have zero capacitive reactance for direct current. (True or False)
False
Capacitors block direct current. (True or False)
True
