An autotransformer compared to its two-winding counterpart has a higher operating efficiency.

An autotransformer compared to its two-winding counterpart has a higher operating efficiency. Correct Answer True

The losses are less in autotransformer compare to two-winding transformer. Thus, for the given same input to autotransformer as that of two-winding transformer more output will be available to secondary side.

Which of the following statement(s) are true with respect to the concept of ‘EFFICIENCY’ as used in mainstream economics? 1. Efficiency occurs when no possible organization of production can make anyone better off without making someone else worse off. 2. An economy is clearly inefficient if it is inside the Production Possibility Frontier (PPF). 3. At a minimum, an efficient economy is on its Production Possibility Frontier (PPF). 4. The terms such as ‘Pareto Efficiency’, ‘Pareto Optimality’ and ‘Allocative Efficiency’ are all essentially one and the same which denote ‘efficiency in resource allocation’. Select the correct answer using the code given below:

Pavan and Sravan are two persons. If Pavan works with his actual efficiency and Sravan twice of his actual efficiency then it takes 25 days to complete the work. But If Pavan works twice of his actual efficiency and Sravan with his normal efficiency then the work is completed in 20 days. How many days would it take if Sravan alone works with his actual efficiency (in Days)?
Tap A can fill 1/4th of tank in D hours and the remaining tank can be filled by tap B in (D + 16) hours. A is 40% more efficient than B. Both the taps are opened to fill the tank, but A was working with 2/7th of its efficiency and B was working with 2/5th of its efficiency, after few hours, they started working with their full efficiency, and remaining tank is filled in 10 hours. Find the time for which taps didn’t work with their full efficiency?
The Hubble Space Telescope has shut down and gone into safe mode after one of its gyroscopes used to point and stabilize the observatory failed. Out of six gyroscopes, only two are currently operating. Hubble requires three of its gyroscopes to maintain optimal efficiency. Inference: The Hubble Space Telescope requires all of its six gyroscopes to maintain optimal efficiency.
Read the given statement carefully and answer the question given below: Statement: There has been a considerable drop in sales of four-wheelers during the past six months when compared to the number of four-wheelers sold during this period last year. Conclusion:  I) The government imposed higher excise duty on four-wheelers at the beginning of this year. II) Last year's four-wheelers sale is higher compared to this year's four-wheelers sale.
