JEE Main 2024 — 8 April, Shift 2 — Question 52

An alternating emf E=1102sin⁡100tE=110 \sqrt{2} \sin 100 \mathrm{t} volt is applied to a capacitor of 2μ F2 \mu \mathrm{~F}, the rms value of current in the circuit is \qquad mA .

Answer: 22

Numerical answer — enter this value.

Step-by-step solution

C=2μf;E=1102sin⁡(100t)C=2 \mu \mathrm{f} ; \quad E=110 \sqrt{2} \sin (100 \mathrm{t})

XC=1ωc=1100×2×106X_{C}=\frac{1}{\omega c}=\frac{1}{100 \times 2 \times 10^{6}}

=100002=5000Ω=\frac{10000}{2}=5000 \Omega

io=11025000\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{o}}=\frac{110 \sqrt{2}}{5000}

irms=110250002\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{rms}}=\frac{110 \sqrt{2}}{5000 \sqrt{2}} =1105 mA=\frac{110}{5} \mathrm{~mA}

=22 mA=22 \mathrm{~mA}
