An inductive circuit contains resistance of 20 ohm and an inductance of 20 H. If an ac voltage of 120 V and frequency 60 Hz is applied to this circuit, the current would be A 0.0159
A 0.017
A 0.02
A 0.16

answer : option (b) 0.016 amp

explanation : resistance of resistor , R = 10 Ω

inductance of inductor , X_LX

L

= 20H

voltage of AC circuit , V = 120volts

frequency, ff =60Hz

so, angular frequency, \omega=2\pi fω=2πf = 2 × π × 60 = 120π rad/s

now, current , i=\frac{V}{\sqrt{R^2+\omega^2L^2}}i=

= 120/√{10² + (120π)² × 20²}

= 120/√{100 + 14400π² × 400}

after solving this we get, i = 0.016 amp
