A coil has inductance 2H. The ratio of its reactance, when it is connected first to an AC source and then to DC source, is

  1. A Zero
  2. B 1
  3. C Less than 1
  4. D Infinity
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Infinity

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, inductance of coil, L = 2H
Reactance of coil, when it is connected to AC source,
XLAC=1ωL where, ω= angular frequency
XLω=12μω
For DC source, inductor coil behaves pure conductor, hence XLDC=0
XLACXLDC=2ω0= (at infinity)
