To light, a \(50\,W , 100\,V\) lamp is connected, in series with a capacitor of capacitance \(\frac{50}{\pi \sqrt{ x }} \mu F\), with \(200 V , 50 Hz AC\) source. The value of \(x\) will be........
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(3\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(P =\frac{ V ^{2}}{ R } \Rightarrow R =\frac{ V ^{2}}{ P }\)
\(R =\frac{100 \times 10^{2}}{50}= R =200 \Omega\)
\(V _{ R }^{2}+ V _{ C }^{2}= V ^{2}\)
\((100)^{2}+ V _{ C }^{2}=(200)^{2}\)
\(i =\frac{100}{200}=\frac{1}{2} ;\)
\(V = I \times X _{ C }\)
\(V _{ C }=100 \sqrt{3}\)
\(X C _{ C }=200 \sqrt{3}\)
\(200 \sqrt{3}=\frac{1}{\omega C }\)
\(C =\frac{ V ^{2}=40000}{20 \times 50 \times 20 \sqrt{3}}=\frac{ V _{ C }^{2}=30000}{\sqrt{ x }}\)
\(\sqrt{ x }=50 \times 10^{-6} \times 100 \times 200 \sqrt{3}\)
\(X =3\)
