A device ‘X’ is connected to an a .c source. The variation of voltage, current and power in one complete cycle is shown in Fig 7.5.

(a) Which curve shows power consumption over a full cycle?
(b) What is the average power consumption over a cycle?
(c) Identify the device ‘X’.

Answers (1)

(a) \text {Power (P)}=\text {VI}
Power consumption will have the maximum amplitude between the three curves.

(b) Average Power consumption is zero covering a positive and a similar negative area in a complete cycle.

(c) For the given circuit, the phase difference between V and I is \frac{\pi }{2}. The device ‘X’ can be an inductor or capacitor or a series combination of inductors and capacitors.
