The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to calculate the power absorbed in an AC circuit consisting of a resistance and a choke coil in series. ### Step 1: Identify Given Values - Resistance (R) = 220 Ω - Inductance (L) = 0.7 H - Voltage (V_rms) = 220 V - Frequency (f) = 50 Hz ### Step 2: Calculate the Inductive Reactance (X_L) The inductive reactance (X_L) can be calculated using the formula: \[ X_L = \omega L \] where \( \omega = 2\pi f \). Calculating \( \omega \): \[ \omega = 2 \pi \times 50 = 100\pi \, \text{rad/s} \] Now calculate \( X_L \): \[ X_L = 100\pi \times 0.7 \approx 100 \times 3.14 \times 0.7 \approx 219.8 \, \Omega \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Impedance (Z) The total impedance (Z) in an LR circuit is given by: \[ Z = \sqrt{R^2 + X_L^2} \] Substituting the values: \[ Z = \sqrt{(220)^2 + (219.8)^2} \] Calculating \( R^2 \) and \( X_L^2 \): \[ R^2 = 48400, \quad X_L^2 \approx 48320.04 \] Now calculate Z: \[ Z = \sqrt{48400 + 48320.04} \approx \sqrt{96720.04} \approx 310.9 \, \Omega \] ### Step 4: Calculate the RMS Current (I_rms) Using Ohm's law for AC circuits: \[ I_{rms} = \frac{V_{rms}}{Z} \] Substituting the values: \[ I_{rms} = \frac{220}{310.9} \approx 0.707 \, \text{A} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Power Absorbed (P) The power absorbed in the circuit can be calculated using: \[ P = I_{rms}^2 \cdot R \] Substituting the values: \[ P = (0.707)^2 \cdot 220 \] Calculating \( (0.707)^2 \): \[ (0.707)^2 \approx 0.5 \] Now calculate P: \[ P \approx 0.5 \cdot 220 = 110 \, \text{W} \] ### Final Answer The power absorbed from the circuit is approximately **110 Watts**. ---
