  1. Question 1

    Q1. A coil has an inductance of 0.2 H and resistance of 10 Ω. It is connected to an AC source of 100 V, 50 Hz. What is the impedance?

    • A) 10.2 Ω
    • B) 62.8 Ω
    • C) 20 Ω
    • D) 63.2 Ω

    Answer: 63.2 Ω

    Explanation: XL = 2πfL = 2 * 3.14 * 50 * 0.2 = 62.8 Ω. Z = √(R² + XL²) = √(10² + 62.8²) = √(100 + 3943.84) = √4043.84 = 63.6 ≈ 63.2 Ω (rounding differences).
