A 220-V, 50 Hz, ac generator is connected to an inductor and a `50 Omega` resistance in series. The current in the circuit is `1.0 A`. What is the PD across inductor?

A

(A) `102.2 V`

B

(B) `186.4 V`

C

(C) `214 V`

D

(D) `170 V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`(V_R)=(I_V)R=1xx50 = 50 Omega`
`(V_L)=sqrt(E_(V)^(2)-V_(R )^(2)) = sqrt(220^(2)-50^(2))=214 V`.
