The r.m.s current in an `AC` circuit is `2A`. If the wattless current be `sqrt(3)A`, what is the power factor?A. `1/(sqrt(3))`B. `1/(sqrt(2))`C. `1/2`D. `1/3`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`i_(WL)=i_(rms) sin varphi implies sqrt(3) =2sin varphi implies sin varphi=(sqrt(3))/2`
`implies varphi=60^(@)` so `p.f=cos varphi=cos 60^(@)=1/2`
