Answer:

Option D: 21.8 degrees

Explanation:

In a parallel RL circuit, the current in the resistor R and that in the inductor L are separated among themselves 90 degrees as illustrated in the attached image. In the image the current in the resistor is represented in orange, that of the inductor in blue, and the total current (vector addition of the previous two) is represented  in red, forming a certain angle (theta) with respect to the current in the resistor. The output voltage is the same as the input voltage as measured over the resistor R.

Therefore, the phase angle that separated output voltage and total current can be obtained using the fact that tan(phase angle) = \frac{I_l}{I_R} = \frac{x}{y} \frac{4}{10}, therefore the angle is the arctangent of 4/10:

arctang(\frac{4}{10} )= 21.801 degrees.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The phase angle between voltage and current in a parallel RL circuit is 21.8° </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In this question  input voltage V_i_n  across both the components, the resistor and inductor is same since it is  a  parallel RL circuit.  

<em>Current cross resistor I_R=10 mA </em>

<em>Current across inductor I_L=2 mA  </em>

<em>Inductive reactance X_L= \frac{ V_i_n}{I_L} = \frac{V_i_n}{(2 mA)}</em>

Resistance of the resistor R= \frac{V_i_n}{I_R} = \frac {V_i_n}{(10 mA)}

Phase angle between voltage and current ∅ =tan^-^1 R/X_L

=tan^-^1 \frac{(V_i_n /10)}{(V_i_n /2)}=  tan^-^1 \ \frac{2}{10}=tan^-^1\ 0.4

How much time does it take light to travel from the moon to the earth, a distance of 384000 km?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

1.28second

Explanation:

The speed of light is constant everywhere, it is

299,792,458m/s=299,792.458km/s

Therefore it takes

\frac{384000}{299792458}  = 1.28sec

The mechanical engery of an object equals its
Katarina [22]

The sum of an object's potential and kinetic energies is called the object's mechanical energy. As an object falls its potential energy decreases, while its kinetic energy increases. The decrease in potential energy is exactly equal to the increase in kinetic energy.
