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) $V = \sqrt {V_R^2 + V_L^2} = \sqrt {{{(20)}^2} + {{(16)}^2}} = \sqrt {656} = 25.6\,\,V$
