MCQ
The phase angle between current and voltage in a purely inductive circuit is:
  • A
    $\text{zero}$
  • B
    $\pi$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi}{4}$
  • D
    $\frac{\pi}{2}$

Answer

  1. $\frac{\pi}{2}$

Explanation:

In the above image waveform of current and voltage in puerly inductive circuit with time is shown.

It is clear from the image that current lags voltage by 90°.

Hence phase angle between current and voltage in purely inductive circuit is $\frac{\pi}{2}$
