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