A circuit operating at `360/(2pi) Hz` contains a `1muF` capacitor and a `20 Omega`. resistor. How large an inductor must be added in series to make the phase angle for the circuit zero? Calculate the current in the circuit if the applied voltage is `120 V`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`phi=0`, if
`X_L=X_C`
`or 2pifL=1/(2pifC)`
`:. L=1/((2pif^2C)`
`=1/((360)^2xx10^-6)`
`=7.7H`
`Z=R` (when `X_L=X_C)`
`:. I=V/Z=V/R=120/20`
`=6A`.
