A choke coil has.

A

high inductance and low resistance

B

low inductance and high resistance

C

high inductance and high resistance

D

low inductance and low resistance

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

A choke coil has high inductance and low resistance , due to large inductance L of the coil, the current in the circuit is decreased appreaciably. Due to small resistance of the coil , the power loss in the choke , coil is less.
