What is the relation between voltage and current in AC circuit containing only resistance?

1 Answer

Answer :

Current (I) is in-phase with the voltage.
I = V/R amps.
P = I * V * cosϕ or I2 R watts. (Where cosϕ is zero because the voltage and current are in-phase. So cosϕ 0° (zero) = 1)

Description : What is the relation between voltage and current in AC circuit containing only capacitance?

Last Answer : Current (I) is leading the voltage by 90°. I = V/XC amps. XC = 1/2πfC ohms. P = I * V * cosϕ watts. (Where cosϕ is 90 because current is leading the voltage by 90°. So cosϕ 90° = 0) ∴ P = I * V * 0 = 0 watts.

Description : What is the relation between voltage and current in AC circuit containing only inductance?

Last Answer : Current (I) is lags behind the voltage by 90°. I = V/XL amps. XL = 2πfL ohms. P = I * V * cosϕ watts. (Where cosϕ is 90 because current lags behind voltage by 90°. So cosϕ 90° = 0) ∴ P = I * V * 0 = 0 watts.
