A series R-C circuit is connected to an alternating voltage source. Consider two situations:

A resistance ' R' draws power 'P' when connected to an AC source. If an inductance is now placed in series with the resistance, such that the impedance of the circuit becomes 'Z', the power drawn will be:
1. \(P\Big({\large\frac{R}{Z}}\Big)^2\)
2. \(P\sqrt{\large\frac{R}{Z}}\)
3. \(P\Big({\large\frac{R}{Z}}\Big)\)
4. \(P\)
A transformer has an efficiency of \(90\)% working on \(200\) V and \(3\) kW power supply. If the current in the secondary coil is \(6\) A, the voltage across the secondary coil and the current in the primary coil, respectively, are:
1. \(300\) V, \(15\) A
2. \(450\) V, \(15\) A
3. \(450\) V, \(13.5\) A
4. \(600\) V, \(15\) A

In an electrical circuit \(R,\) \(L,\) \(C\) and an \(\mathrm{AB}\) voltage source are all connected in series. When \(L\) is removed from the circuit, the phase difference between the voltage and the current in the circuit is \(\tan^{-1}\sqrt{3}\). If instead, \(C\) is removed from the circuit, the phase difference is again \(\tan^{-1}\sqrt{3}\). The power factor of the circuit is:
1. \(1 / 2 \)
2. \(1 / \sqrt{2} \)
3. \(1 \)
4. \(\sqrt{3} / 2\)
The instantaneous values of alternating current and voltages in a circuit are given as,

A coil has a resistance of \(30~ \mathrm{ohm}\) and inductive reactance of \(20 ~\mathrm{ohm}\) at a \(50~\mathrm{ Hz}\) frequency. If an \(\mathrm{ac}\) source of \(200 ~\mathrm{volts,}\) \(100~\mathrm{ Hz}\) is connected across the coil, the current in the coil will be:
