In an AC circuit the voltage applied is ...

In an `AC` circuit the voltage applied is `E = E_(0) sin omega t`. The resulting current in the circuit is `I = I_(0) sin (omega t - (pi)/(2))`. The power consumption in the circuit is given by

A

`P = (E_(0) I_(0))/(sqrt(2))`

B

`P =` zero

C

`P = (E_(0)I_(0))/(2)`

D

`P = sqrt(2) E_(0) I_(0)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2

For given circuit current is lagging the voltage by `pi//2` so circuit is purely inductive and there is no power consumption in the circuit. The work done by battery is stored as magnetic energy in the inductor.
