JEE Main & Advanced Physics Alternating Current / प्रत्यावर्ती धारा Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Alternating Current

  • question_answer
    A resistor and an inductor are connected to an ac supply of 120 V and 50 Hz. The current in the circuit is 3 A. If the power consumed in the circuit is 108 W, then the resistance in the circuit is

    A) \[12\,\Omega \]

    B) \[40\,\Omega \]

    C) \[\sqrt{(52\times 25)}\Omega \]

    D) \[360\,\Omega \]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] In an ac circuit, a pure indcutor does not consume any power. Therefore, power is consumed by the resistor only. \[\therefore \,\,\,P=I_{v}^{2}R\] or \[108={{(3)}^{2}}R\] or \[R=12\Omega \]
