MHT CET2008PhysicsAlternating Current
In an AC circuit the emf (e) and the current (i) at any instant are given respectively by array l e=E₀ t i=I₀ ( t- ) array The average power in the circuit over one cycle of AC is
Options
- AE₀ I₀ 2
- BE₀ I₀ 2
- CE₀ I₀ 2
- DE₀ I₀
Correct answer
C. E₀ I₀ 2
Step-by-step solution
Power = rate of work done in one complete cycle. Or P_ av = W T Or P_ av = (E₀ I₀ ) T / 2 T or P_ av = E₀ I₀ 2 where is called the power factor of an AC circuit.
