When is tanφ positive?(a) When inductive reactance is less than capacitive reactance(b) When inductive reactance is greater than capacitive reactance(c) When inductive reactance is equal to capacitive reactance(d) When inductive reactance is zeroI got this question in examination.I'd like to ask this question from Alternating Current in an RLC Circuit in section Single Phase Series Circuits of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer»

The correct ANSWER is (b) When inductive reactance is greater than CAPACITIVE reactance

For EXPLANATION I would say: tanφ is positive when inductive reactance is greater than capacitive reactance because CURRENT will lag the VOLTAGE.
