  3. C \(5 \mathrm{~A}\)
  4. D \(6 \mathrm{~A}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1.25 \mathrm{~A}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(C=\frac{50}{\pi} \mu \mathrm{F}=\frac{50}{\pi} \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~F}\) Source voltage, \[ \begin{aligned} & V=250 \mathrm{~V} \\ & f=50 \mathrm{~Hz} \end{aligned} \] Capacitive reactance,…
