A circuit element X when connected to an a.c. supply of peak voltage 100V given a peak current of 5A which is in phase with the voltage. A second element Y when connected to the same a.c. supply also gives the same value of peak current which lags behind the voltage by π 2 .  If X and Y are connected in series to the same supply, what will be the rms value of the current in ampere?

Correct Option - 4
Detailed Solution:

v = 100 sin ωt

i0=100Rx=5Rx=20Ω

i = 5sin(ωtπ2)

i = 100 5sin ωt

5=100RyRy=1005=20Ω

When x and y both are connected in series :-

v = 100sin ωt

tan = 1 = 45°

R0Rx2+Ry2=202Ω

l0o=v0R0=100202=52A.

lms=l02

=522

=52A=52A
