In a purely inductive circuit, the current is

A

in phase with the voltage

B

out of phase with the voltage

C

leads the voltage by ` pi//2 `

D

lags behind the voltage by ` pi// 2 `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

In a purely resistive AS circuit,

Assertion (A) : The inductive reactance limits the currents in a purely inductive circuit in the same way as the resistancefsd circuit. Reason (R ) : The inductive reactance is directly propontional to the inductance and to the frequency of tha varying current.

Assertion : In a purely inductive or capacitive circuit, the current is referred to as wattless currents. Reason : No power is dissipated in a purely inductive or capacitive circuit even though a current is flowing in the circuit.
