Question: Answered & Verified by Expert
In an a.c. circuit the voltage applied is $\mathrm{E}=\mathrm{E}_0 \sin \omega \mathrm{t}$. The resulting current in the circuit is $\mathrm{I}=\mathrm{I}_0 \sin \left(\omega \mathrm{t}-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)$. The power consumption in the circuit is given by

Options:
  • A
    $\mathrm{P}=\frac{\mathrm{E}_0 \mathrm{I}_0}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • B
    $\mathrm{P}=$ zero
  • C
    $\mathrm{P}=\frac{\mathrm{E}_0 \mathrm{I}_0}{2}$
  • D
    $\mathrm{P} \sqrt{2} \mathrm{E}_0 \mathrm{I}_0$

The correct answer is:
$\mathrm{P}=$ zero
$\cos \phi=0$
So power $=0$
