Question

An alternating voltage of 220 volt r.m.s at a frequency of 40 cycle/sec is supplied in a circuit containing a pure inductance of 0.01 H and a pure resistance of 6 ohms in series. Calculate (i) the current, (ii) potential difference across the resistance, (iii) potential difference across the induction, (iv) the time tag, (v) power factor

Solution

Given, Vrms=220v, f=40Hzω=80π
and L=0.01HXL=ωL=0.8π=2.512Ω
R=6Ωimpedence,Z=R2+X2L=36+6.3==43.3=6.58
  1. so rms current Irms=VZ=2206.58=33.43A
  2. Potential difference across the resistance Vr=IrmsR=33.43×6=200.58V
  3. Potential difference across the inductor is VL=IrmsXL=33.43×2.512=83.97V
  4. for time lag , ωt=tan1VLVR=22.7
  5. power factor , cosϕ=cos22.7=0.922
