The following figure shows an $AC$ generator connected to a 'black box' through a pair of terminals. The box contains possible $R, L, C$ or their combination,whose elements and arrangements are not known to us. Measurements outside the box reveal that $e = 75 \sin(\omega t) \text{ V}$ and $i = 1.5 \sin(\omega t + 45^\circ) \text{ A}$. Then,the wrong statement is:

  • A
    There must be a capacitor in the box.
  • B
    There must be an inductor in the box.
  • C
    There must be a resistance in the box.
  • D
    The power factor is $0.707$.

You are given many resistances,capacitors and inductors. These are connected to a variable $DC$ voltage source (the first two circuits) or an $AC$ voltage source of $50 \ Hz$ frequency (the next three circuits) in different ways as shown in Column $II$. When a current $I$ (steady state for $DC$ or rms for $AC$) flows through the circuit,the corresponding voltage $V_1$ and $V_2$ (indicated in circuits) are related as shown in Column $I$. Match the two.

$A$ coil of self-inductance $L$ is connected in series with a bulb $B$ and an $AC$ source. The brightness of the bulb decreases when:

The reactance of a circuit is zero. It is possible that the circuit contains:

$A$ resistor $R$, an inductor $L$, and a capacitor $C$ are connected in series with an a.c. source. When $L$ is removed from the circuit, the phase difference between voltage and current in the circuit is $\pi/3$. If instead, $C$ is removed from the circuit, the phase difference is again $\pi/3$.
