Choke coil is used to control

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Choke coil is connected in series with the tube light and its presence reduces voltage across the tube light. We need low voltage to operate tube light.
If rms votlage applied is `epsilon_("rms")`, then we can write rms voltage across tube light as follows :
`rArr " " V_(rms)^("tube -light ") = (R)/( sqrt( R^(2) + m^(2) l^(2),) ) epsilon_(rms) `
Voltage across tube light is less than applied, and the same can be understood by the above equation. Ideally inductor does not consume power , so voltage reduction across tube light is done without wastage of any power. but is there but it is small .

A choke coil is connected to an AC source. Some power is dissipated in coil. Now a capacitor is connected in series with the coil and source is same, then average power dissipated in the circuit does not changes. If ratio of inductive reactance of coil and capacitive reactance of capacitor is 1/x then find x
