Calculate the active power in a 32 H inductor.(a) 28 W(b) 189 W(c) 4 W(d) 0 WThis question was posed to me in unit test.My query is from Methods to Reduce the Energy Loss During Starting in portion Starting of Electric Drives

Answer» RIGHT option is (d) 0 W

Easy explanation: The inductor is a linear element. It only absorbs REACTIVE power and stores it in the form of OSCILLATING energy. The voltage and CURRENT are 90° in phase in case of the inductor so the angle between V & I is 90°. P = VIcos90° = 0 W.
