MCQ
Same current is flowing in two alternating circuits. The first circuit contains only inductance and the other contains only a capacitor. If the frequency of the $e.m.f.$ of $ac$ is increased, the effect on the value of the current will be
  • A
    Increases in the first circuit and decreases in the other
  • B
    Increases in both the circuits
  • C
    Decreases in both the circuits
  • Decreases in the first circuit and increases in the other

Answer

Correct option: D.
Decreases in the first circuit and increases in the other
d
(d) For the first circuit $i = \frac{V}{Z} = \frac{V}{{\sqrt {{R^2} + {\omega ^2}{L^2}} }}$
$\therefore $ Increase in $\omega$ will cause a decrease in i.
For the second circuit $i = \frac{V}{{\sqrt {{R^2} + \frac{1}{{{\omega ^2}{C^2}}}} }}$
$\therefore $ Increase in will cause an increase in i.
