Q111 / 150 · MHT CET 2012 · Physics

In AC circuits choke is preferred to resistors because

A
choke coil is cheap
B
voltage increases
Correct answer
C
energy is not wasted
D
current increases

Solution

In AC circuits choke coil is used to control current is without loss of energy.

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