Sample WBCHSE HS Vocational Electronics Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the WBCHSE HS Vocational Electronics exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1According to Ohm's Law, what happens to the current flowing through a conductor if the resistance is doubled while voltage remains constant?
A.Current is halved
B.Current is doubled
C.Current remains unchanged
D.Current increases fourfold
Explanation: Ohm's Law states that I = V / R. If the voltage V remains constant and the resistance R is doubled, the resulting current I becomes half of its initial value. This demonstrates an inverse relationship between current and resistance.
2What is the equivalent resistance of three 6-ohm resistors connected in parallel?
A.2 ohms
B.18 ohms
C.3 ohms
D.6 ohms
Explanation: For identical resistors in parallel, the total resistance is R_total = R / n, where R is the individual resistance and n is the number of resistors. Here, 6 ohms divided by 3 equals 2 ohms. Alternatively, 1/R_eq = 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 3/6 = 1/2.
3Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) is based on the principle of conservation of which fundamental physical quantity?
A.Charge
B.Energy
C.Momentum
D.Magnetic flux
Explanation: Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) states that the algebraic sum of currents entering any node in an electrical circuit is zero. This law directly reflects the conservation of electric charge, as charge cannot accumulate or dissipate at a node.
4What is the peak-to-peak voltage of a standard sinusoidal AC supply with an RMS voltage of 220 V?
A.622 V
B.311 V
C.440 V
D.220 V
Explanation: The peak voltage V_peak = V_rms * sqrt(2) = 220 * 1.414 ≈ 311 V. The peak-to-peak voltage V_p-p is twice the peak voltage: 2 * 311 V ≈ 622 V.
5Which passive electronic component opposes any sudden change in electric current flowing through it?
A.Inductor
B.Capacitor
C.Resistor
D.Thermistor
Explanation: An inductor stores energy in its magnetic field and generates a self-induced electromotive force (EMF) that opposes changes in current according to Lenz's law (V = L * di/dt). Therefore, it resists sudden current variations.
6What is the capacitive reactance (Xc) of a 10 uF capacitor connected to a 50 Hz AC supply?
A.318.3 ohms
B.159.15 ohms
C.500 ohms
D.3.14 ohms
Explanation: Capacitive reactance is given by Xc = 1 / (2 * pi * f * C). Substituting f = 50 Hz and C = 10 * 10^-6 F: Xc = 1 / (2 * 3.14159 * 50 * 10^-5) = 1 / (0.00314159) ≈ 318.3 ohms.
7In a series RLC resonant circuit, what is the value of circuit impedance at the resonant frequency?
A.Equal to pure resistance R
B.Infinite
C.Zero
D.Equal to inductive reactance Xl
Explanation: At resonance in a series RLC circuit, inductive reactance (Xl) equals capacitive reactance (Xc), so the reactive part cancels (Xl - Xc = 0). The impedance Z = sqrt(R^2 + (Xl - Xc)^2) simplifies to minimum impedance equal to pure resistance R.
8A resistor has color bands: Yellow, Violet, Orange, and Gold. What is its nominal resistance and tolerance?
A.47 k-ohms +/- 5%
B.4.7 k-ohms +/- 10%
C.470 ohms +/- 5%
D.57 k-ohms +/- 5%
Explanation: Using standard 4-band resistor color code: Yellow = 4, Violet = 7, Orange = multiplier 10^3 (1,000), Gold = tolerance +/- 5%. Therefore, the nominal value is 47 * 1,000 = 47,000 ohms = 47 k-ohms +/- 5%.
9What is the turns ratio (Np/Ns) required for a step-down transformer to step down 230 V AC primary to 11.5 V AC secondary?
A.20:1
B.1:20
C.10:1
D.50:1
Explanation: The transformer turn ratio is proportional to voltage ratio: Np / Ns = Vp / Vs. Here Np / Ns = 230 / 11.5 = 20. Thus the turns ratio is 20:1.
10What power is dissipated by a 100-ohm resistor connected across a 12 V DC power source?
A.1.44 W
B.1.2 W
C.14.4 W
D.0.12 W
Explanation: Electrical power P = V^2 / R. Substituting V = 12 V and R = 100 ohms yields P = 144 / 100 = 1.44 W.
