Question

The power factor in a circuit connected to an
A.C. The value of power factor is :
(a) unity when the circuit contains an ideal
inductance only
(b) unity when the circuit contains an ideal
resistance only
(c) zero when the circuit contains an ideal
resistance only
(d) unity when the circuit contains an ideal
capacitance only

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

current flowing in a circuit is the amount of electrons in it per unit area and voltage is the rate at which the electrons move in it.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Inductive Circuit: The current lags the voltage by 90 degrees. The inductive loads consume reactive power. The power factor of the purely inductive circuit is zero- lagging. The active power is zero.
