Physics Question on Alternating current
Circuit element X when connected to peak voltage of 200 volts, a peek current of 5A flows which lags behind the voltage by ℼ/2. When a circuit element Y when connected to some same the same current flows, which is in face with the voltage. Now X and Y are connected in series with same peak voltage.The RMS value of current through the circuit will be:
A
5A
B
5/√2A
C
2.5A
D
5√A
Answer
2.5A
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is (C): 2.5A
