Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 44.0 W

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(B) 44.0 W
power
\(
\begin{aligned}
\mathrm{P} & =\mathrm{VI} \cos \phi \\
= & \frac{U_{m}}{\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{i_{m}}{\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{\mathrm{R}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{R}^{2}+\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{C}}^{2}}} \\
\therefore \mathrm{P} & =\frac{100 \times 1.1 \times 80}{2 \times \sqrt{(80)^{2}+(60)^{2}}} \\
\mathrm{P} & =\frac{4400}{100} \\
\mathrm{P} & =44 \mathrm{~W}
\end{aligned}
