MCQ
In a purely inductive circuit, the current:
  • A
    is in phase with the voltage
  • B
    is out of phase with the voltage
  • C
    leads the voltage by $\frac{\pi}{2}$
  • D
    lags behind the voltage by $\frac{\pi}{2}$

Answer

  1. lags behind the voltage by $\frac{\pi}{2}$

Explanation:

In a purely inductive circuit (an AC circuit containing inductance only) the current lags behind the voltage by $\frac{\pi}{2}$
