Which of the following statements are true regarding alternating current:
(A) In an a.c. circuit containing resistance only, a.c. power is expressed in the same form as d.c. power (\( P = I^2 R \)), using a special value of current called root mean square (rms) or effective current, denoted by \( I_{rms} \).
(B) A phasor is a vector.
(C) Resonance phenomenon is exhibited by a circuit even if both L and C are not present in the circuit.
(D) For circuits used for transporting electric power, a low power factor implies less power loss in transmission.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A (A), (B) and (D) only
- B (A) and (B) only
- C (A), (B), (C) and (D)
- D (B), (C) and (D) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) (A) and (B) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(A) and (B) only (A) True: In a purely resistive AC circuit, the average power dissipated is indeed \(P=I_{r m s}^2 R\). The Root Mean Square (RMS) value is specifically defined to represent the equivalent DC current that would produce the same heating effect. (B) True: A phasor…

Alcohols and phenol are formed when a hydrogen atom in a hydrocarbon, aliphatic and aromatic respectively, is replaced by \(\text{-OH}\) group. The substitution of a hydrogen atom in a hydrocarbon by an alkoxy or aryloxy group forms ethers. Alcohols and phenol consist of two part, an alkyl/aryl group and a hydroxyl group. The properties of alcohols and phenols are primarily due to the hydroxyl group. The nature of alkyl and aryl groups simply modify these properties. Alcohol react both as nucleophiles and electrophiles whereas in phenols, the reactions that take place on the aromatic ring are electrophilic subtitution reactions.
