BITSAT2021PhysicsAlternating CurrentActual
An alternating voltage V = V ₀ t is applied across a circuit. As a result, a current I = I ₀ ( t - 2 ) flows in it. The power consumed per cycle is
Options
- Azero
- B0.5 ~V ₀ I ₀
- C0.707 ~V ₀ I ₀
- D1.414 ~V ₀ I ₀
Correct answer
A. zero
Step-by-step solution
The phase angle between voltage V and current I is 2 . Therefore, power factor = ( 2 )=0 . Hence the power consumed is zero.
