7.Alternating Current
easy
In an $ac$ circuit, the potential difference across an inductance and resistance joined in series are respectively $16\, V$ and $20 \,V$. The total potential difference across the circuit is.......$V$
A
$20$
B
$25.6$
C
$31.9$
D
$53.5$
Solution
(b) $V = \sqrt {V_R^2 + V_L^2} = \sqrt {{{(20)}^2} + {{(16)}^2}} = \sqrt {656} = 25.6\,\,V$
