In the series a.c circuit shown above, the p.d across the inductor is 8Vr.m.s and…

In the series a.c circuit shown above, the p.d across the inductor is 8Vr.m.s and that across the resistor is 6Vr.m.s. The effective voltage is
  • A.
    2V
  • B.
    10V
  • C.
    14V
  • D.
    48V
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation

The effective V =
 VR2 + VL2 
=
 62 + 82 
=
 36 + 64 
=
 100 

10V
