In an \(\text{AC}\) circuit, the power dissipated in a resistance is found to \(P_1\) when a source voltage of \(V_1\) is connected across it. If the same resistance is connected in series with a capacitance and the same source is connected across the combination, the power in the resistance is found to be \(P_2=\dfrac{P_1}{2}.\) The phase difference between the voltage and the current is:
1. \(30^{\circ}\)
2. \(60^{\circ}\)
3. \(45^{\circ}\)
4. \(90^{\circ}\)

An alternating current generator has an internal resistance \(R_{g}\) and an internal reactance \(X_{g}\). It is used to supply power to a passive load consisting of a resistance \(R_{g}\) and a reactance \(X_{L}\). For maximum power to be delivered from the generator to the load, the value of \(X_{L}\) is equal to:
1. zero
2. \(X_g\)
3. \(-X_g\)
4. \(R_g\)

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R): 
 

Assertion (A): On the increasing frequency of a.c. through a conductor resistance of the circuit may increase.

1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
4. Both (A) and (R) are false.

An \(RC\) circuit is connected to a \(10\) V AC source and it is observed to supply a \(200\) mA current at a frequency of \(100\) kHz. The same resistance is now paired with an inductor \((L)\) in series and the same source supplies \(200\) mA current at a frequency of \(1\) kHz at the same operating voltage. If the circuit were made with the given \(L\text-C\text-R\) in series, the current will be a maximum when the frequency is \(f_o\). Then,
 
1. \(f_o = \dfrac{10^3 + 10^5}{2}\) Hz
2.  \(f_o > \dfrac{10^3 + 10^5}{2}\) Hz
3.  \(f_o < \dfrac{10^3 + 10^5}{2}\) Hz
4.  \(f_o = {10^3 + 10^5}\) Hz

2. \(60~\text{V},~120~\text{V},~120~\text{V}\)
3. \(30~\text{V},~120~\text{V},~120~\text{V}\)
