12. Ans. (c)

Bmax 1Vf

, as f is reduced the Bmax demand

increases. Hence the magnetising componentcurrent demand increases, which may damagethe Transformer due to increased resultantcurrent.

Hence 1Vf

13. Ans. (c)

Given initially the hysteresis loss 1hw and eddy

current loss 1ew are equal, so

wh1= kh50

we1= ke(50)2

So, wh1= we1

kh50 = ke(50)2

kh = 50 ke
