7.Alternating Current
easy
A $12\,\Omega $ resistor and a $0.21\, H$ inductor are connected in series to an $ac$ source operating at $20 \,volts$, $50\,cycle/second$. The phase angle between the current and the source voltage is.....$^o$
A
$30$
B
$40$
C
$80$
D
$90$
Solution
(c) $\tan \phi = \frac{{\omega L}}{R} = \frac{{2\pi \times 50 \times 0.21}}{{12}} = 5.5\, \Rightarrow \,\phi = {80^o}$
