    A 20 volts ac is applied to a circuit consisting of a resistance and a coil with negligible resistance. If the voltage across the resistance is 12 V, the voltage across the coil is [MP PMT 1989; RPMT 1997]

    A)            16 volts                                   

    B)            10 volts

    C)            8 volts                                     

    D)            6 volts

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       The voltage across a L?R combination is given by                    \[{{V}^{2}}=V_{R}^{2}+V_{L}^{2}\]            \[{{V}_{L}}=\sqrt{{{V}^{2}}-V_{R}^{2}}=\sqrt{400-144}=\sqrt{256}=16\,\,volt.\]
