AP EAMCET · PHYSICS · Alternating Current

An inductor and a resistor are connected in series to an ac source of voltage \(144 \sin \left(100 \pi t+\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\) Volt. If the current in the circuit is \(6 \sin \left(100 \pi t+\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\) ampere, then the resistance of the resistor is

  1. A \(24 \Omega\)
  2. B \(36 \Omega\)
  3. C \(12 \Omega\)
  4. D \(18 \Omega\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(12 \Omega\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In LR circuit, \(\begin{aligned} & V=144 \sin \left(100 \pi t+\frac{\pi}{2}\right) \\ & I=6 \sin \left(100 \pi t+\frac{\pi}{6}\right) \end{aligned}\) Also, \(\tan \phi=\frac{X_L}{R} \Rightarrow \tan \left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{\pi}{6}\right)=\frac{X_L}{R}\)…
