MCQ
The phase angle between current and voltage in a purely inductive circuit is:
  • A
    $\text{zero}$
  • B
    $\pi$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{4}$
  • $\frac{\pi}{2}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\frac{\pi}{2}$

In the above image waveform of current and voltage in puerly inductive circuit with time is shown.
It is clear from the image that current lags voltage by $90^\circ .$
Hence phase angle between current and voltage in purely inductive circuit is $\frac{\pi}{2}$
