Alternating Current

Question:

In current flowing through an inductor, if voltage reaches its maximum value at time 2T, at what time will the current reach its maximum value?

Options:

3T/2

5T/2

2T

3T

Correct Answer:

5T/2

Explanation:

Current reaches its maximum value later than the voltage by one-fourth of a period.

Thus, 1/4(2T) = T/2

The current reaches its maximum value at 2T + T/2 = 5T/2
