MCQ
A capacitor is connected to an A.C. circuit, then the phase difference between current and the voltage is:
- A$\pi$
- B$\frac{\pi}{2}$
- C$\frac{-\pi}{2}$
- D$\text{Zero}$
✓
Answer
- $\frac{\pi}{2}$
Explanation:
Current leads voltage by $\frac{\pi}{2}$
$\therefore$ phase difference is $=\frac{\pi}{2}$
