7.Alternating Current
hard
A coil of negligible resistance is connected in series with $90 \Omega$ resistor across $120 \mathrm{~V}, 60 \mathrm{~Hz}$ supply. A voltmeter reads $36 \mathrm{~V}$ across resistance. Inductance of the coil is :
A
$0.76 \mathrm{H}$
B
$2.86 \mathrm{H}$
C
$0.286 \mathrm{H}$
D
$0.91 \mathrm{H}$
(JEE MAIN-2024)
Solution

$36=I_{\text {ms }} R$
$36=\frac{120}{\sqrt{\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}^2+\mathrm{R}^2}} \times \mathrm{R}$
$\mathrm{R}=90 \Omega \Rightarrow 36=\frac{120 \times 90}{\sqrt{\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}^2+90^2}}$
$\sqrt{\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}^2+90^2}=300$
$\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}^2=81900$
$\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}=286.18$
$\omega \mathrm{L}=286.18$
$\mathrm{~L}=\frac{286.18}{376.8}$
$\mathrm{~L}=0.76 \mathrm{H}$
