A coil of inductive reactance 3 1  Ω has a resistance of 8  Ω . It is placed in series with a condenser of capacitive reactance 2 5  Ω . The combination is connected to an ac source of 110V . The power factor of the circuit is

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

X L = 3 1  Ω ,   X C = 2 5  Ω ,   R = 8  Ω

Impedance of series LCR is

Z = R 2 + X L - X C 2

= 8 2 + 3 1 - 2 5 2 = 6 4 + 3 6 = 1 0  Ω

Power factor, cos ϕ = R Z = 8 1 0 = 0.8
