The phase angle between current and voltage in a purely inductive circuit is

A

Current lags behind emf by an angle of `(pi)/(2)`

B

Current lags behind emf by an angle of `pi`

C

Current Leads the applied emf by an angle of `(pi)/(2)`

D

Current and applied emf are in same phase.

Text Solution
