Penalty for wrong answers :
THERE WILL BE PENALTY FOR WRONG ANSWERS MARKED BY A CANDIDATE.
(i) There are four alternatives for the answer to every question. For each question for which a
wrong answer has been given by the candidate, one-third of the marks assigned to that
question will be deducted as penalty.

the given answers happens to be correct and there will be same penalty as above to that
question.
(iii) If a question is left blank, i.e., no answer is given by the candidate, there will be no penalty

When the assumed currents both
enter or both leave a pair of coupled
coils by the dotted terminals, the
signs on the M-terms will be the
same as the signs on the L-terms.
When one current enters by a dotted
terminal while the other leaves by a
dotted terminal, the signs on the
M-terms will be opposite to the signs
on the L-terms.
The term ‘close coupling’ is used to
describe the case where most of the
flux links the coils, either by way of
a magnetic core to contain the flux
or by interleaving the turns of the
coils directly over one another.
Coils placed side-by-side without a
core are loosely coupled and have
correspondingly high values of k.
If all the flux links the coil without
any leakage flux, then k = 1. On the
other extreme, the coil axes may be
oriented such that no flux from one
can induce a voltage in the other,
which results in k = 0.
