QNEET-2022-Ph-556: NEET 2022 Physics - Class 12 NEET-2022-Ph-556 Solution: Given below are two statements Statement I: In an a.c circuit…
Given below are two statements Statement I: In an a.c circuit the current through a capacitor leads the voltage across it. Statement II: In a.c circuit containing pure capacitance only the phase difference between the current and voltage is . In the light of the above statements choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
Multiple Choice Options
- A Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
- B Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
- C Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
- D Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
V = V 0 sin _ _ t
V = q C
q = C V sin _ _ t
d q d t = C V d d t sin _ _ t
i = C V _ cos _ _ t
i = C V _ sin _ ( _ t + � 2 )
In a.c circuit current lead by voltage by a phase � 2
Thus statement I is correct while II is incorrect.
