  1. A 10
  2. B 20
  3. C 40
  4. D 80
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 10

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) 10
\(I=\frac{V}{Z}\)
\(\mathrm{I}=\frac{v_{m}}{\sqrt{2} \times \frac{1}{\omega \mathrm{C}}}\)
\(\mathrm{I}=\frac{v_{m} \times \omega \mathrm{C}}{\sqrt{2}}\)
\(I=\frac{(100 \sqrt{2}) \times(100) \times\left(1 \times 10^{-6}\right)}{\sqrt{2}}\)
\(\mathrm{I}=10^{-2}\)
\(\mathrm{I}=10 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~A}\)
\(\mathrm{I}=10 \mathrm{~mA}\)
