If the power factor is `1//2` in a series `RL` circuit with `R = 100 Omega`. If `AC` mains, `50 Hz` is used then `L` isA. `(sqrt(3))/(pi)` henryB. `pi` henryC. `sqrt(3)` henryD. `sqrt(3) pi` henry

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`Z = sqrt(R^(2) + omega^(2) L^(2))`
`cos phi = (R )/(2) implies (1)/(2) = (100)/(2) implies Z = 200 Omega`
`:. R^(2) + omega^(2) L^(2) = Z^(2) implies omega^(2) L^(2) = Z^(2) - R^(2)`
`implies omega^(2) L^(2) = 4 xx 10^(4) - (100)^(2) = 3 xx 10^(4) implies omega L = 100 sqrt(3)`
`implies 2 xx pi xx 50 xx L = 100 sqrt(3) implies L = (100 sqrt(3))/(2 pi xx 50) = (sqrt(3))/(pi)`
