NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Easy-Class 12
Consider a phasor diagram in an AC circuit where V is the hypotenuse and the sides are V_R and (V_C + V_L). What does the magnitude of the phasor (V_C + V_L) represent?
A
The net reactive voltage in the circuit.
B
The resistive voltage drop across the circuit.
C
The total supplied voltage in the circuit.
D
The instantaneous current amplitude.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In the phasor representation, V_C and V_L are along the same line but in opposite directions, combining to a single phasor (V_C + V_L) which represents the net reactive voltage.
