The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of power consumption in the given AC circuit, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values The current \( i \) and voltage \( V \) are given as: - Current: \( i = 5 \sin(100t - \frac{\pi}{2}) \) - Voltage: \( V = 200 \sin(100t) \) ### Step 2: Determine the peak values of current and voltage From the equations: - The peak current \( I_{\text{peak}} = 5 \, \text{A} \) - The peak voltage \( V_{\text{peak}} = 200 \, \text{V} \) ### Step 3: Calculate the RMS values The RMS (Root Mean Square) values are calculated using the formula: \[ V_{\text{rms}} = \frac{V_{\text{peak}}}{\sqrt{2}} \quad \text{and} \quad I_{\text{rms}} = \frac{I_{\text{peak}}}{\sqrt{2}} \] Calculating these: \[ V_{\text{rms}} = \frac{200}{\sqrt{2}} \quad \text{and} \quad I_{\text{rms}} = \frac{5}{\sqrt{2}} \] ### Step 4: Find the phase difference \( \phi \) The phase difference \( \phi \) between the voltage and the current can be determined from the equations: - The current lags the voltage by \( \frac{\pi}{2} \) radians (or 90 degrees). ### Step 5: Calculate the power consumption The power consumption \( P \) in an AC circuit is given by the formula: \[ P = V_{\text{rms}} \cdot I_{\text{rms}} \cdot \cos(\phi) \] Substituting the values we found: - \( \cos(\phi) = \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) = 0 \) Thus, the power consumption becomes: \[ P = \left(\frac{200}{\sqrt{2}}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}\right) \cdot 0 = 0 \, \text{W} \] ### Conclusion The power consumption in the circuit is \( 0 \, \text{W} \). ---
