        The power factor of an A.C. circuit having resistance R and inductance L (connected in series) and an angular velocity\[\omega \]is:

    A)  \[R/\omega L\]                               

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

    C)  \[\omega L/R\]                               

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

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

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