MCQ
For an $\text{LCR}$ circuit, the power transferred from the driving source to the driven oscillator is $\text{P}=\text{FZ}\cos\phi$.
  • A
    Here, the power factor $\cos\phi\geq0,\text{P}\geq0$.
  • B
    The driving force can give no energy to the oscillator $(P = 0)$ in some cases.
  • C
    The driving force cannot syphon out $(P < 0)$ the energy out of oscillator.
  • All of the above

Answer

Correct option: D.
All of the above
  1. Here, the power factor $\cos\phi\geq0,\text{P}\geq0$.
  2. The driving force can give no energy to the oscillator $(P = 0)$ in some cases.
  3. The driving force cannot syphon out $(P < 0)$ the energy out of oscillator.
Solution:
Key Concept: Power Factor.
  1. It may be defined as cosine of the angle of lag of lead $($i.e., $\cos\phi).$
  2. It is also defined as the radio of resistance and impedange $\Big(\text{i.e.,} \frac{\text{R}}{\text{Z}}\Big)$.
  3. $\text{The radio}=\frac{\text{True power}}{\text{Apparent power}}=\frac{\text{W}}{\text{VA}}=\frac{\text{kW}}{\text{kVA}}=\cos\phi$
In the given problem power transferred,
$\text{P}=\text{I}^2\text{Z}\cos\phi$
where I is the current, $Z =$ Impedance and $\cos\phi$ is power factor
  1. As power factor, $\cos\phi=\frac{\text{R}}{\text{Z}}$
where $R > 0$ and $Z > 0$
$\Rightarrow\ \cos\phi>0\Rightarrow\ \text{P}>0$
  1. When $\phi=\frac{\pi}{2} ($in case of $L $ of $C), P = 0.$
  2. From $(a)$, it is clear that $P < 0$ is not possible.
