1.

The power factor of the circuit shown in the figure is A. 0.4B. 0.2C. 0.8D. 0.6

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Total resistance `R = 20 + 40 = 60 Omega`
The impedance of `LCR` circuit is given by
`Z = sqrt(R^(2) + (X_(L) - X_(C ))^(2))`
`= sqrt(60^(2) + (100 + 20)^(2)) = 100`
Power factor, `cos phi = R//Z = 60//100 = 0.6`
