An \( 80 \, \Omega \) resistor is connected to a 240 V, 50 Hz AC supply. The net power consumed over a full cycle is:

  1. A zero
  2. B 240 W
  3. C 339 W
  4. D 720 W
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 720 W

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( P = \frac{V^2}{R} \) \( P = \frac{(240 \, \text{V})^2}{80 \, \Omega} \) \( P = \frac{57600 \, \text{V}^2}{80 \, \Omega} \) \( P = 720 \, \text{W} \)
