.An inductor of inductance 10 H is connected across an a.c circuit source of 50 V, 100 Hz. What is the current in the circuit? [π = 3.14]

  • A. 0.200A
  • B. 0.070A
  • C. 0.050A
  • D. 0.008A

Correct Answer: D. 0.008A

Explanation

Given Data: L = 10, V = 50, F = 100, I = ?

Inductive Reactance [X\(_L\)] = 2\(\pi\)FL → 2 * 3.14 * 100 * 10

X\(_L\) = 6,280

Current[I] = \(\frac{V}{X_L}\) → \(\frac{50}{6280}\)

I = 0.0079

≈ 0.008A
