In a series LR circuit, the voltage drop across inductor is 8 volt and across resistor is 6 volt. Then voltage applied and power factor of circuit respectively are:A. Volatage of the source will be leading current in the ciruitB. Volatage drop across each element will be less the appliced voltageC. Power factor of circuit will be 4/3D. None of these

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Since cos `theta = (R)/(Z) = (IR)/(IZ) = (8)/(10) = (4)/(5) `
(cos `theta` can never be greater than 1)
Also , `IX_(C) gt IX_(L) implies X_(C) gt X_(L)`
Current will be leading
In a LCR circuit
`V = sqrt((V_(L) - V_(C))^(2) + V_(R)^(2)) = sqrt((6 - 12)^(2) + 8^(2))`
V = 10 , which is less than voltage drop across capacitor .
