Reactance of the inductor
`X_(L) = omegaL = 2pivL= 2xx 3.14 xx 50 xx 800 xx 10^(-3)=251.3Omega`
Capacitive reactance,
`X_(C) =1/(omegaC)=1/(2pivC) = 1/(2 xx 3.14 xx 50 xx 60 xx 10^(-3)) = 251.3 Omega`
`therefore` Impedance,
`Z=sqrt(R^(2)+(X_(L)-X_(C))^(2))=sqrt((15)^(2) + (251.3-53.05)^(2))`
`rArr Z=198.8Omega`
`therefore I_(rms) = V_(rms)/Z = 230/198.8 = 1.157`A
Note that the inductance and capacitor do not consume power over a cycle.
Now, average power dissipated in the resistor.
`I_(rms)^(2).R=(1.157)^(2) xx 15`
=20.07 W
Total power consumed = `V_(rms).I_(rms).cosphi`
`=V_(rms).I_(rms).R/Z`
`=(230 xx 1.157 xx 15)/(198.8) = 20.07`W
Note that the total power consumed always is same as that consumed in resistor.
