Power, Power Factor & Wattless Current

In an ACAC circuit, the current is i=5sin⁡(100t−π2) Ai = 5\sin\left(100t - \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\text{ A} and voltage is e=200sin⁡(100t)e = 200\sin(100t) volt. Power consumption in the circuit is (cos⁡90∘=0)(\cos 90^\circ = 0)

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Phase difference between current and voltage is ϕ=π2\phi = \frac{\pi}{2}.
  2. P=e0i02cos⁡90∘=0P = \frac{e_0i_0}{2}\cos 90^\circ = 0
  3. So the answer is (b) 0 W.
