The 3-phase modulating waveforms
and
, used in sinusoidal PWM in a Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) are
where
is the fundamental frequency. The modulating waveforms are compared with a 10 kHz triangular carrier whose magnitude varies between +1 and −1. The VSI has a DC link voltage of 600 V and feeds a star connected motor. The per phase fundamental RMS motor voltage, in volts, is closest toYour answerChoose one option.

An air filled cylindrical capacitor (capacitance
) of length L, with a and b as its inner and outer radii, respectively, consists of two coaxial conducting surfaces. Its cross-section view is shown in Fig. (i). In order to increase the capacitance, a dielectric material of relative permittivity
is inserted inside 50% of the annular region as shown in Fig. (ii). The value of
for which the capacitance of the capacitor in Fig. (ii), becomes
is
