Pyq- Electromagnetic Induction & Alternating Currents L10
Question: An inductor of inductance $2 \mathrm{mH}$ is connected to a $220 \mathrm{~V}, 50 \mathrm{~Hz}$ ac source. Let the inductive reactance in the circuit is $X_1$. If a $220 \mathrm{~V}$ dc source replace the ac source in the circuit, then the inductive reactance in the circuit is $X_2 . X_1$ and $X_2$ respectively are: (NEET-2022)
A) $0.628 \Omega$, infinity
B) $6.28 \Omega$, zero
C) $6.28 \Omega$, infinity
D) $0.628 \Omega$, zero
Answer: $0.628 \Omega$, zero
Explanation
We know, for A.C. source
$ X_L=\omega L$
$=2 \pi f(L)$
$=100 \pi\left(2 \times 10^{-3}\right)$
$=0.2 \pi \Omega=0.628 \Omega$
For D.C. source
The inductor behaves as a closed circuit offering no resistance at all (at steady state) as $\omega=0$ (For D.C.)
$\therefore X_L=0 \Omega$
