12th Class Physics Alternating Current / प्रत्यावर्ती धारा Question Bank MCQ - Alternating Currents

  • question_answer
    A \[0.2\text{ }k\,\Omega \] resistor and \[15\text{ }\mu \text{F}\] capacitor are connected in series to a 220 V, 50 Hz source. The impedance of the circuit is:

    A) \[250\,\Omega \]            

    B) \[268\,\Omega \]

    C) \[29.15\,\Omega \]                     

    D) \[291.5\,\Omega \]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    (c) Here, \[R=0.2\,k\,\Omega =200\,\Omega \]             \[C=15\mu F=15\times {{10}^{-6}}F,{{V}_{rms}}=220\,V,\,v=50\,Hz\] Capacitive reactance, \[{{X}_{C}}=\frac{1}{2\pi vC}=\frac{1}{2\times 3.14\times 50\times 15\times {{10}^{-6}}}=212\,\Omega \] The impedance of the RC circuit is \[Z=\sqrt{{{R}^{2}}+X_{C}^{2}}=\sqrt{{{(200)}^{2}}+{{(212)}^{2}}}=291.5\,\Omega \]
