An a.c. voltage is applied to a resistor of resistance \(5 \Omega\) and an inductor having inductive reactance \(5 \Omega\) connected in series. The phase difference between the applied voltage and the current in the circuit is:

  1. A \(\frac{\pi}{3}\)
  2. B \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)
  3. C \(\frac{\pi}{2}\)
  4. D Zero
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\tan \phi = \frac{X_L}{R}\) \(\tan \phi = \frac{5 \, \Omega}{5 \, \Omega}\) \(\tan \phi = 1\) \(\phi = \frac{\pi}{4}\)
