RL and RC Series Circuits

In an a.c. circuit, a resistance ' RR ' is connected in series with an inductance ' LL '. If phase angle between voltage and current is 45∘45^\circ, the value of inductive reactance will be (tan⁡45∘=1)(\tan 45^\circ = 1)

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. For series RL: tan⁡ϕ=XLR\tan\phi = \frac{X_L}{R}.
  2. tan⁡45∘=1⇒XL=R\tan 45^\circ = 1 \Rightarrow X_L = R
  3. So the answer is (a) R.
