Q.

An inductor of self inductance 1 H connected in series with a resistor of 100πΩ and an ac supply of 100π volt, 50 Hz. Maximum current flowing in the circuit is ________ A.          [2025]


Ans.

(1)

Impedance of circuit

Z=R2+(XL)2=R2+(ωL)2

   =(100π)2+(2π×50×1)2

   =(100π)2+(100π)2

   =2×100πΩ

Irms=VZ=100π2×100π=12

Imax=2Irms=2×12=1 Ampere
