MCQ
Current in the circuit is wattless, if
  • A
    Inductance in the circuit is zero
  • Resistance in the circuit is zero
  • C
    Current is alternating
  • D
    Resistance and inductance both are zero

Answer

Correct option: B.
Resistance in the circuit is zero
b
(b)Because power $ = {i^2}R,$ if $ R = 0,$  then $ P = 0.$
