When a 100V DC is applied across a solenoid, a current of 1.0 A flows in it. When a 100V AC is applied across the same coil, the current drops to 0.5A. If the frequency of the AC source is 50Hz, the impedance and inductance of the solenoid are
A
200Ω and 0.55H

Solution
The correct option is A200Ω and 0.55H From given, Z=VrmsIrms=100V0.5A=200Ω Now from DC circuit, R=100V1A=100Ω For detailed solution watch the next video Now in AC circuit Z=√R2+X2L;XL=2πfL Z=√(100)2+(2π×50×L)2 (200)2=(2π×50×L)2+(100)2L=0.55H
