JEE Main20236 Apr 2023Evening ShiftPhysicsAlternating CurrentActual
A capacitor of capacitance 150 . 0 μ F is connected to an alternating source of emf given by E = 36 sin 120 π t V . The maximum value of current in the circuit is approximately equal to:
Options
- A2   A
- B2   A
- C2 2   A
- D1 2   A
Correct answer
A. 2   A
Step-by-step solution
The formula for maximum current is given by I m a x = ω C V m       . . . ( i ) The given data is ω = 120 π V m = 36   V C = 150   μF Substituting the values in equation (i) I max = 120 π × 150 × 10 - 6 × 36 = 2 . 036   A ≈ 2   A
