MCQ
A choke coil has
  • High inductance and low resistance
  • B
    Low inductance and high resistance
  • C
    High inductance and high resistance
  • D
    Low inductance and low resistance

Answer

Correct option: A.
High inductance and low resistance
a
(a) A choke will has got high inductance and low resistance. since an inductor is a nonresistive device, it does not consume any power in the form of heat like a resistance. That's why we use a low resistance and a high inductance in a choke to save power.
