TS EAMCET · Physics · Alternating Current

A capacitor and a resistor of resistance \(100 \sqrt{3} \Omega\) are connected in series to an ac source of voltage \(100 \sin (200 t) \mathrm{V}\), where ' \(t\) ' is time in second. If the phase difference between the voltage and the current in the circuit is \(30^{\circ}\), then the capacitance of the capacitor is

  1. A \(30 \mu \mathrm{~F}\)
  2. B \(50 \mu \mathrm{~F}\)
  3. C \(100 \mu \mathrm{~F}\)
  4. D \(150 \mu \mathrm{~F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(50 \mu \mathrm{~F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\omega = 200 \, \mathrm{rad/s}\) \(\tan \phi = \frac{X_C}{R}\) \(\tan 30^{\circ} = \frac{X_C}{100 \sqrt{3} \, \Omega}\) \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{X_C}{100 \sqrt{3}}\) \(X_C = 100 \, \Omega\) \(C = \frac{1}{\omega X_C}\)…
