Pure R, L and C Circuits

A coil has inductance 2 H. The ratio of its reactance when it is connected first to an a.c. source and then to a d.c. source is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. For a.c.: XL=ωL=2ωX_L = \omega L = 2\omega, a finite value.
  2. For d.c.: ω=0\omega = 0, so XL=0X_L = 0.
  3. Ratio =2ω0=∞= \frac{2\omega}{0} = \infty
  4. So the answer is (c) ∞\infty.
