In an ac circuit an alternating voltage e = 200 √2 sin 100 t volts is connected to a capacitor of capacity 1 µF. The r.m.s. value of the current in the circuit is
Options
(a) 10 mA
(b) 100 mA
(c) 200 mA
(d) 20 mA
Correct Answer:
20 mA
Explanation:
Vᵣₘₛ = 200 √2 / √2 = 200 V
Iᵣₘₛ = Vᵣₘₛ / Xc = 200/1 / 100 x 10⁻⁶
= 2 x 10⁻² = 20 mA

10^-6 is wrong it will be 10*10^-6=10^-5 so correct answer 200mA
V(rms) = 200 √2 / √2 = 200 V
I(rms) = V(rms) / Xc = (200/1) / (100 x 10⁻⁶)
= 2 x 10⁻² = 20 mA
