Alternating Current and voltage

Question

In an ac circuit, V and I are given by
V = 100 sin (100 t) volts, $I = 100 \sin (100 t + \frac{π}{3}) mA$ . The power dissipated in circuit is

Moderate

A

10⁴ watt
B

10 watt
C

2.5 watt
D

5 watt

Solution

$P = V_{r . m . s .} \times i_{r . m . s .} \times cosφ = \frac{100}{\sqrt{2}} \times \frac{100 \times 10^{- 3}}{\sqrt{2}} \times \cos \frac{π}{3}$
$= \frac{10^{4} \times 10^{- 3}}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{10}{4} = 2 .5 watt$
