In an ac circuit, a coil of self-inductance L is connected in series with an electric bulb of resistance R. If the frequency of ac supply increases, then

  1. A Impedance of the circuit decreases
  2. B Effective current in the circuit increases
  3. C Brightness of the bulb decreases
  4. D Phase difference between the current and the voltage decreases
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Brightness of the bulb decreases

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(X_L = 2 \pi f L \implies \text{If } f \uparrow, X_L \uparrow\) \(Z = \sqrt{R^2 + X_L^2} \implies \text{If } X_L \uparrow, Z \uparrow\) \(I_{rms} = V_{rms}/Z \implies \text{If } Z \uparrow, I_{rms} \downarrow\)…
