When a series circuit containing resistance and inductive reactance is connected to a ac supply the current will?
The load current will lag the supply voltage by an angle called a 'phase angle', determined by the values of resistance and inductive reactance. The magnitude of the load current will be determined by the impedance of the circuit, which is the vector sum of the resistance and inductive reactance.
When a resistive AC circuit contains inductance the total opposition to current flow is called?
The resistance of an a.c. load is called 'resistance' (R). Resistance is not affected by frequency, only by the cross-sectional area, length, and resistivity of the conductor. Having said that, because of the skin effect, which causes an a.c. current to flow closer to the surface of the conductor, the effective cross-sectional are is reduced, so the value of a.c resistance is somewhat higher than the d.c. resistance -this difference increases with frequency.The opposition to a.c due to inductive or capacitive loads is called reactance (inductive reactance or capacitive reactance), and the overall opposition to a.c. current is the vector sum of resistance and reactance, and is called impedance. That is:(impedance)2 = (resistance)2 + (reactance)2
What is the formula for inductive reactance in a circuit with a capacitor inductor and a resistor in a AC circuit?
to determine the total resistance, you add them vectorilly,first find the inductive reactance of the inductor by the following formula: 2 pi F L (2x3.14 x frequency in herts x inductance in henrys) next, consider the inductive reactance and the resistance as the two sides of a right triangle and the hippotanus would be the total impedance.(this combined ''resistance'' is called impedance.) to determine the total resistance, you add them vectorilly,first find the inductive reactance of the inductor by the following formula: 2 pi F L (2x3.14 x frequency in herts x inductance in henrys) next, consider the inductive reactance and the resistance as the two sides of a right triangle and the hippotanus would be the total impedance.(this combined ''resistance'' is called impedance.)
Why is there a difference in current in a coil when you apply dc voltage and then AC voltage to it?
A coil has both resistance and inductance. When you apply a d.c. voltage, the opposition to current is the resistance of the coil. When you apply an a.c. voltage, the opposition to current is impedance -the vector-sum of the coil's resistance and its inductive reactance. Inductive reactance is proportional to the inductance of the coil and the frequency of the supply.
What will be the inductance in inductive circuit at low frequency?
The inductance doesn't change, but the impedance (equivalent to resistance) will be very low.
Why resistance is neglected for fault finding?
A fault can be resistive in nature, and the amount of resistance in the fault is unpredictable. It is unusual for a fault to be inductive or capacitive, so a typical method is to determine the impedance to the fault, and compare only the inductive part of this to the inductive part of the line impedance.

The load current will lag the supply voltage by an angle called a 'phase angle', determined by the values of resistance and inductive reactance. The magnitude of the load current will be determined by the impedance of the circuit, which is the vector sum of the resistance and inductive reactance.
What are the specifications of resistance?
specification of inductive load,capactive load,resistive load in laboratory

Inductive reactance has a unit in?
Ohms, resistance in an inductor increases as the frequency of the AC signal increases, this "artificial resistance" is called impedence, and it is measured in ohms

Does the impedance of an RL series circuit varies inversely with the frequency?
The simple answer is no. The impedance of an R-Lcircuit is the vector sum of the circuit's resistance and its inductive reactance. Resistance is determined by the length, cross-sectional area, and resistivity of the conductor (although its 'a.c. resistance' is proportional to the frequency squared), whereas the inductive reactance is directly proportional to the frequency of the supply.

A coil has both resistance and inductance. When you apply a d.c. voltage, the opposition to current is the resistance of the coil. When you apply an a.c. voltage, the opposition to current is impedance -the vector-sum of the coil's resistance and its inductive reactance. Inductive reactance is proportional to the inductance of the coil and the frequency of the supply.
What is phase between voltage and current in a pure inductive circuit?
The phase angle between voltage and current in a purely inductive circuit, under ideal circumstances where there is no resistance at all, is 90 degrees.
What is the relationship between voltage and current in an inductive circuit?
Current lags voltage in an inductive circuit. The angle by which it lags depends on the frequency of the AC, and on the relative size of the inductance compared to the resistance in the circuit.
What will be the inductance in inductive circuit at low frequency?
The inductance doesn't change, but the impedance (equivalent to resistance) will be very low.
