Question:

Choose the incorrect statement

(a) Fleming’s right hand rule is a simple rule to know the direction of induced current.

(b) The right-hand thumb rule is used to find the direction of magnetic fields due to current carrying conductors.

(c) The difference between the direct and alternating currents is that the direct current always flows in one direction, whereas the alternating current

reverses its direction periodically.

(d) In India, the AC changes direction after every 1/60 seconds

Solution:

(d).

Explanation : Frequency of AC in India = 50 Hz

∴ AC completes 1 cycle in 1/50 seconds.

In one cycle, AC changes direction two times. Hence, time after which AC changes direction

$=\frac{1}{2 \times 50}=\frac{1}{100}$ second.
