1) in inductor there is generation of magnetic field due to flow of current . so there is phase difference in voltage and current .

2)in capacitor there is storage of charges. there is phase diff.

3)But in case of resistor there is no such things are happend . it is only a power dissipating element.therefor there is no phase difference between current and voltage.

A series RC circuit will have a phase shift between 0 and 90 degrees?

If there are only a resistor and a capacitor in the circuit, then the phase shift will indeed be between 0 and 90 degrees. When the resistor and capacitor are in series, the phase shift will be negative when the capacitor is connected to a source voltage and the resistor is the load. The phase shift will be positive when the resistor is connected to the source. The lower the values of R and C, the higher the frequency bandwidth.With the resistor and capacitor connected in series and the two parts connected to a current source, the phase shift will be negative. At high frequencies, the output voltages is lower, and the circuit appears as a very low impedance. At low frequencies, the circuit looks more like a resistor. Again, the phase shift will be between 0 and 90 degrees.CommentThe correct term is phase angle, not 'phase shift'. By definition, the phase angle is the angle by which the load current leads or lags the supply voltage. For an RC circuit, the current leads the voltage, so the phase angle is a leading phase angle.


What are the relations between individual voltages and the total voltages when resistors are connected in series and in parallel?

-- The current in each individual resistor is (voltage across the whole circuit) divided by (the resistance of the individual resistor). -- The current in any individual resistor is less than the total current in the circuit. -- The total current in the circuit is the sum of the currents through each individual resistor.


Does the formula used to calculate the turns ratio uses the phase voltages and phase current?

For a transformer, the turns ratio always applies between its primary and secondary windings. So the turns ratio for a three-phase transformer is the ratio of primary to secondary phase voltages, not between line voltages.


What is the Difference between single phase current and three phase current?

given a balance three phase, three wires system with star-connected load for which lime voltage is 230v and the impedance of each phase is (6+j8)ohm. find the line current and power absorbed by each phase.


How many volt each phase in three phase?

600 volts between any two wires. The phase has nothing to do with voltages, only current relationship.


When connecting two alternators in parallel do the two voltages have to be in phase or directly out of phase?

They must be precisely in phase. If connected out of phase current would flow uncontrollably between the two alternators as a short circuit.


How does ohm's law works in a resistor circuit?

Ohm's law states that voltage is resistance times current. In a resistor circuit, knowing two of voltage, current, or resistance, you can calculate the third.Actually, this applies to any circuit, be it resistor, capacitor, or inductor. Ohm's law still applies - it just gets more complex when the phase angle of current is not the same as the phase angle of voltage.


What size resistor in parallel to reduce from 120 volts to 100 volts?

A resistor in parallel with a voltages source will not cause the voltage to drop, theoretically. To get a 20 volt drop you need a resistance in series, and the number of ohms is 20 divided by the current in amps. If the current is unknown or variable, the voltage can't be dropped by using a resistor.


What are the 3 phases of conditioning?

Three phases conditions are: 1. there should be three wires for carrying current and voltage. 2. the current and voltages should be sinusoidal in nature i.e A.C voltages or currents. 3. phase angle should be 120 degree apart for each line voltages or current. Suppose voltage of the first line is given by: Va= Vsin(phi) Then second and third line voltages will be: Vb=Vsin(120-(phi)) and Vc=Vsin(240-(phi)) where (phi) is the phase angle and V is the supply voltages which has same magnitude in all the three phases.


What is the relationship of current through the resistor and inductor in the LR parallel circuit?

When they are in parallel the same voltage appear across both. The resistor carries a current of V/R, the inductor carries a current of V/(jwL). So the current in the inductor is 90 degrees behind in its phase.


When an inductor and resistor are connected in parallel by how many degrees is the current flow through the resistor out of phase with the current flow through the inductor?

When a resistor and an inductor are both connected to an AC supply, the current in the resistor is in phase with the voltage, while the current in the inductor is a quarter-cycle (90 degrees) behind. Supposing they both draw 1 amp on a 12-volt AC supply. The resistor will dissipate 12 watts, while the inductor will dissipate no power. Any power that enters the inductor comes back to the generator in a later part of the cycle. But the current drawn from the supply is 1.414 amps, so this would be a load with a power factor of 0.707.


What is total voltage in 3phase supply when one of the phase becomes zero?

There is no 'total voltage' in a three-phase system. There are three line voltages and three phase voltages.
