Question

Assertion: A resistance is connected to an ac source. Now a capacitor is included in the series circuit. The average power absorbed by the resistance will remain same.

Reason: By including a capacitor or an inductor in the circuit average power across resistor does not change.

• A. A and R both are true and R is correct explanation of A
• B. A and R both are true but R is not the correct explanation of A
• C. A is true R is false
• D. A is false and R is true

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

A is false and R is true

After connecting the capacitor Irms will charge because impedance is changed.
$\therefore$ A is false
