Electro Magnetic Induction And Alternating Currents Question 146

Question: An LCR series circuit with a resistance of 100 ohm is connected to an ac source of 200 V (r.m.s.) and angular frequency 300 rad/s. When only the capacitor is removed, the current lags behind the voltage by 60o . When only the inductor is removed the current leads the voltage by 60o . The average power dissipated is

Options:

A) 50 W

B) 100 W

C) 200 W

D) 400 W

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

tanφ=XLR=XCRtan60o=XLR=XCR
XL=XC=3 R

i.e. Z=R2+(XLXC)2=R

So average power P=V2R=200×200100 = 400W
