Question

ln AC parallel circuit the angle between voltage and current of each branch will be _______.

A.

Cannot say

B.

Different

C.

Same

D.

Zero

Correct option is B

· In an AC parallel circuit, different branches may have different types of components, such as resistors, inductors, and capacitors. These components cause different phase shifts between voltage and current in each branch.
· The angle between the voltage and current in a branch is determined by the type of component in that branch:
Resistors: Voltage and current are in phase (angle is 0°).
Inductors: Current lags behind the voltage by 90°.
Capacitors : Current leads the voltage by 90°.
· If the circuit has a combination of these components in different branches, the angle between voltage and current will vary depending on the impedance of each branch.
· the impedance (and therefore the phase angle) is different for different components, the angle between voltage and current in each branch of a parallel AC circuit will generally be different.
