Questions  

By what percent the impedance in an series LCR, AC circuit should be increased so that the power factor changes from (1/2) to (1/4) (assume resistance R remains constant)
 

a
200%
b
100%
c
50%
d
400%

detailed solution

Correct option is B

cos⁡ϕ=RZ 12=RZ and 14=RZ1⇒R=Z2⇒14=Z2Z1⇒Z′=2Z % increase in z, z′−zz=100%
