Question

In the following circuit diagram inductive reactance of inductor is 24Ω and capacitive reactance of capacitor is 48Ω, then reading of ammeter will be

• A. 5 A
• B. 2.4 A
• C. 2.0 A
• D. 10 A

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

5 A

Answer 2

$i_{L} = \frac{240}{24} = 10A$

$i_{C} = \frac{240}{48} = 5A$

Hence $i = i_{L} - i_{C} = 5A$
