Manipal MET2011PhysicsCapacitance
An alternating voltage E=200 2 (100 t) V is connected to a 1 ~F capacitor through an AC ammeter. The reading of ammeter is
Options
- A10 mA
- B20 mA
- C40 mA
- D80 mA
Correct answer
B. 20 mA
Step-by-step solution
Given E=200 2 (100 t) ..(i) Comparing Eq. (i) with E=E₀ t Peak voltage E₀=200 2 , =100C=1 ~F =1 10⁻⁶ ~F Reáding of ammeter, i= E_ rms X_C aligned & = E₀ _C 2 = E_ rms 1 / C = E₀ C 2 & = 200 2 100 1 10⁻⁶ 2 & =20 10⁻³ ~A & =20 ~mA aligned
