When alternating current is passed through L-R series circuit, the power factor is 3 2 and R=50 , then the value of L is [ 6 = 3 2 , 6 = 1 2 , 6 = 1 3 ]
Options
- A1 2
- B3 2
- C1 2 3
- D1 3
Correct answer
C. 1 2 3
Step-by-step solution
Given: Resistance R = 50 , power factor = 3 2 . The phase angle satisfies = 6 , taking = 6 as standard. For an LR circuit, = X_L R . Substituting known values: 6 = 1 3 = X_L 50 Solving gives X_L = 50 3 . Using X_L = L with = 2 f : L = 50/ 3 2 f Assuming a standard frequency of 50 Hz: L = 50 2 3 50 = 1 2 3 Henry This corresponds to option C .
