In a purely resistive ac circuit the current and voltage?
Voltage and current will be in phase for a purely resistive load. As a load becomes more inductive or capacitive, the phase angle between voltage and current will increase.
Which component slow down the current in circuit?
An inductive load can cause current to lag voltage in an AC circuit. An increase in resistance will decrease amount of current flow.
What is meant by lagging and leading circuit?
The terms, 'lagging' and 'leading', describe the relationship between a circuit's load current and supply voltage. They describe whether the load current waveform is leading or lagging the supply voltage -always the current, never the voltage. Inductive loads always cause the current to lag the supply voltage, whereas capacitive loads always cause the current to lead the supply voltage.
Compare the phase relationship between the voltage and current in a purely resistive circuit and an RL circuit?
In a pure resistive circuit the voltage and current are in phase. In an inductive circuit they are fro zero to 180 degrees out of phase. If they are in phase the Power Factor is 1 and 180 degrees the PF is zero. The exact amount of the phase difference depends on the specific circuit.
What is the phase angle between voltage and current in a purely resistive circuit?
The phase angle between voltage and current in a purely resistive circuit is zero. Voltage and current are in phase with each other.
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.
A circuit with a lagging current means the circuit is?
Inductive. Voltage (E) leads current (I) in an inductive (L) circuit and current (I) leads voltage (E) in a capacitive (C) circuit. (ELI the ICEman)
What cause the voltage t lead current in an ac circuit?
Voltage leads current or, more specifically current lags voltage, in an inductive circuit. This is because an inductor resists a change in current.
In a purely resistive ac circuit the current and voltage?
Voltage and current will be in phase for a purely resistive load. As a load becomes more inductive or capacitive, the phase angle between voltage and current will increase.
In RC circuits the voltage leads the current?
Inductive. Used to remember this by "Eli" the "ice" man. "(e) Voltage (l) (Inductive circuit) (i) current", the ,"(i) Current (c) (capacitive circuit) (e) voltage, man.
Why is capacitive voltage higher than inductive voltage in an R-L-C circuit?
It isn't necessarily so. The capacitive voltage is the product of the current and capacitive reactance, while the inductive voltage is the product of the current and the inductive reactance. So it depends whether the capacitive reactance is greater or smaller than the inductive reactance!
When a circuit is inductive the current has what voltage?
This doesn't make sense, "current" is "amperage" so the higher the voltage the lower the amperage, and the lower the voltage the higher the amperage.
Which component slow down the current in circuit?
An inductive load can cause current to lag voltage in an AC circuit. An increase in resistance will decrease amount of current flow.
In a series RLC circuit at frequencies above resonance is the circuit capacitive or inductive?
in series you XL, voltage leads the current, and in Parallel current leads the voltage. so your answer should reflect on this theory.

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.
