Key concept: Equation for i and $V$: Alternating current or voltage varying as sine function can be written as
$\text{i}=\text{i}_0\ \sin\omega\text{t}=\text{i}_0\ \sin2\pi\text{v t}=\text{i}_0\sin\frac{2\pi}{\text{T}}\text{t}$

and $\text{V}=\text{V}_0\ \sin\omega\text{t}=\text{V}_0\ \sin2\pi\text{v t}=\text{V}_0\sin\frac{2\pi}{\text{T}}\text{t}$
where $i$ and $V$ are instantaneous values of current and voltage,
$i _0$ and $V _0$ are peak values of current and voltage
$\omega =$ Angular frequency in $\frac{\text{red}}{\text{sec}}, v =$ Frequency in $Hz$ and $T =$ time period
Accoeding to the problem, $f = 50Hz, I = 5A$

The given $\text{LCR}$ circuit is in resonance. Inductive reactance magnitude $\text{XL}$ increases as frequency increases while capacitive reactance magnitude $\text{XC}$ decreases with the increase in frequency.
At one particular frequency, these two reactances are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign; that frequency is called the resonant frequency fO for the given circuit. Hence, at resonance:
$\text{XL = XC}$
So the voltage across rthe unknown inductor is $200V$ as same as the voltage across the capacitor.

- A
$308 V$

AnswerWe need to find the average potential difference across the mixer. Here by average we mean average over a long period of time. As we know in one complete cycle, average voltage across the mixer is zero. $($In one complete cycle current changes the direction and net voltage across a resistor is zero$).$
So when in one complete cycle voltage drop across the resistor is zero, then the average voltage drop across the resistor $($mixer$)$ is zero.

Answer
- Here, the power factor $\cos\phi\geq0,\text{P}\geq0$.
- The driving force can give no energy to the oscillator $(P = 0)$ in some cases.
- The driving force cannot syphon out $(P < 0)$ the energy out of oscillator.
Solution:
Key Concept: Power Factor.
- It may be defined as cosine of the angle of lag of lead $($i.e., $\cos\phi).$
- It is also defined as the radio of resistance and impedange $\Big(\text{i.e.,} \frac{\text{R}}{\text{Z}}\Big)$.
- $\text{The radio}=\frac{\text{True power}}{\text{Apparent power}}=\frac{\text{W}}{\text{VA}}=\frac{\text{kW}}{\text{kVA}}=\cos\phi$
In the given problem power transferred,
$\text{P}=\text{I}^2\text{Z}\cos\phi$
where I is the current, $Z =$ Impedance and $\cos\phi$ is power factor
- As power factor, $\cos\phi=\frac{\text{R}}{\text{Z}}$
where $R > 0$ and $Z > 0$
$\Rightarrow\ \cos\phi>0\Rightarrow\ \text{P}>0$
- When $\phi=\frac{\pi}{2} ($in case of $L $ of $C), P = 0.$
- From $(a)$, it is clear that $P < 0$ is not possible.

A coil of self$-$inductance $L$ is connected in series with a bulb $B$ and an $AC$ source. Brightness of the bulb decreases when.
AnswerCorrect option: D. An iron rod is inserted in the coil
As the iron rod is inserted, the magnetic field inside the coil magnetizes the iron increasing the magnetic field inside it. Hence. the inductance of the coil increases. Consequently, the inductive reactance of the coil increases. As a result, a larger fraction of the applied $AC$ voltage appears across the lnductor, leaving less voltage across the bulb.Therefore' the brightness of the light bulb decreases.

In the following circuit the values of $L , C , R$ and $E 0$ are $0.01 H , 10^{-5} F, 25 \Omega$ and $220$ volt respectively. The value of current flowing in the circuit at $f =0$ and $f =\infty$ will respectively be.

- A
$8 A$ and $0 A$
- ✓
$0 A$ and $0 A$
- C
$8 A$ and $8 A$
- D
$0 A$ and $8 A$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $0 A$ and $0 A$
$\text{I}=\frac{220}{25+\text{j}\Big(0.1\times2\pi\text{f }-\frac{1}{10^{-5}2\pi\text{f}}\Big)}$
$\text{I}=0\text{ at }\text{f}=0$
$\text{I}=0\text{ at }\text{f}=\infty$

In an $LCR$ circuit as shown below both switches are open initially. Now switch $S_1$ is closed, $S_2$ kept open. $( q$ is charge on the capacitor and $\tau= RC$ is capacitive time constant$)$. Which of the following statement is correct?

- A
$\text{At t}=\tau,\text{q}=\frac{\text{CV}}{2}$
- ✓
$\text{At t}=2\tau,\text{q}={\text{CV}}(1-\text{e}^{-2})$
- C
$\text{At t}=\frac{\text{T}}{2},\text{q}={\text{CV}}(1-\text{e}^{-1})$
- D
Work done by the battery is half of the energy dissipated in the resistor.
AnswerCorrect option: B. $\text{At t}=2\tau,\text{q}={\text{CV}}(1-\text{e}^{-2})$
Charge on the capacitor at any time $`t'$ is
$\text{q}=\text{CV}(1-\text{e}\frac{-\text{t}}{\tau})$
$\text{at }\text{t}=2\tau$
$\text{q}=\text{CV}(1-\text{e}^{-2})$

A $6kHz$ sinusoidal voltage is applied to a series $RC$ circuit. The frequency of the voltage across the resistor is.
- A
$0Hz$
- B
$12kHz$
- ✓
$6kHz$
- D
$18kHz$
AnswerCorrect option: C. $6kHz$
Frequency of applied voltage and voltage or current accross any component are same. As we know,
$\text{I}=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{Z}}$ and $Z$ has nothing to do with frequency
$\Rightarrow \text{IandV}$ have same frequency.
And also according to $KVL V = V _1+ V _2+ V _3$
$\Rightarrow $ voltage and current across any component have same frequency i.e $6kHz.$
