Q117 / 125 · BITSAT 2010 · Physics

An alternating voltage $V=V_{0}$ sin ot is appliedacross a circuit. As a result, a current $I=I_{0} \sin (\omega t-\pi / 2)$ flows in it. The power consumed per cycle is

  • Correct answer
    A
    zero
  • B
    $0.5 \mathrm{~V}_{0} \mathrm{I}_{0}$
  • C
    $0.707 \mathrm{~V}_{0} \mathrm{I}_{0}$
  • D
    $1.414 \mathrm{~V}_{0} \mathrm{I}_{0}$

Solution

The phase angle between voltage $\mathrm{V}$ and current I is $\pi / 2$.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
