In an a.c. circuit, there is no power consumption in an ideal inductor. Explain.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To explain why there is no power consumption in an ideal inductor in an AC circuit, we can break down the explanation into several steps: ### Step 1: Understanding AC Circuits In an alternating current (AC) circuit, the current and voltage vary sinusoidally with time. The power consumed in an AC circuit can be calculated using the formula: \[ P = V_{\text{rms}} \cdot I_{\text{rms}} \cdot \cos(\phi) \] ...
