CBSEENPH12039901

A coil of self -inductance L is connected in series with a bulb b and an AC source. Brightness of the bulb decreases when

  • frequency of the AC source is decreases

  • number of turns in the coil is reduced

  • a capacitance of reactance Xc=XL is  included in the same circuit

  • an iron is inserted in the coil

Solution

D.

an iron is inserted in the coil

As space equals space straight Z space equals square root of straight R squared plus straight X subscript straight L superscript 2 end root space equals space square root of straight R squared plus left parenthesis 2 πfvL right parenthesis squared end root

As space straight I equals space straight V over straight Z. straight P space equals space straight I squared straight R
straight i. straight e. comma space straight V upwards arrow space straight L upwards arrow space rightwards double arrow space straight Z upwards arrow. space straight I downwards arrow space and space straight P downwards arrow
