E_R_ = I_R_ * R
1Q18 The voltage drop across an inductor in a circuit can be determined by the formula - Correct Answer
E_L_ = I_L_ * X_L_
1Q18 In this series circuit, the voltage drop across the resistor is 130 volts, and the applied voltage is 150 volts. What is the voltage drop across the coil? (Round the FINAL answer to one decimal place.) -
Correct Answer 74.8 V note:
E_app_ = sqrt ( E_R_^2 + E_L_^2) E_L_ = sqrt ( E_app_^2 - E_R_^2) = sqrt (150^2 - 130^2 ) =q1974.8 V 1Q19 VARs represents the product of the volts and amps that are ? out-of-phase with each other. - Correct Answer 90 degrees
