    The power factor of an AC circuit having resistance R and inductance L (connected in series) and an angular velocity co is   AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2002

    A) \[\frac{R}{\omega L}\]                     

    B)           \[\frac{R}{{{({{R}^{2}}+{{\omega }^{2}}{{L}^{2}})}^{1/2}}}\]

    C)                           \[\frac{\omega L}{R}\]                     

    D)           \[\frac{R}{{{({{R}^{2}}-{{\omega }^{2}}{{L}^{2}})}^{1/2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    From the relation, \[\tan \phi =\frac{\omega L}{R}\]              Power factor,        \[\cos \phi =\frac{1}{\sqrt{\,1+{{\tan }^{2}}\phi }}\]                                 \[=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\,1+{{\left( \frac{\omega L}{R} \right)}^{2}}}}\]                                 \[=\frac{R}{\sqrt{\,{{R}^{2}}+{{\omega }^{2}}{{L}^{2}}}}\]
