In an `AC` circuit the reactance of a coil is `sqrt(3)` times its resistance, the phase difference between the voltage across the current through the coil will be

A

`pi // 3`

B

`pi // 2`

C

`pi // 4`

D

` pi // 6`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`tan phi = (X)/(R) = ( sqrt(3 R))/(R) = sqrt(3) rArr phi = 60^(@) = (pi)/(3)`
