  1. A Zero
  2. B \(30^{\circ}\)
  3. C \(60^{\circ}\)
  4. D Data is incomplete
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(60^{\circ}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given: \(X = \sqrt{3}R\) Phase difference: \(\tan(\phi) = \dfrac{X}{R} = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}R}{R} = \sqrt{3}\) Since \(\tan(60°) = \sqrt{3}\) \(\phi = 60°\)
