The following figure shows an $AC$ generator connected to a 'black box' through a pair of terminals. The box contains possible $R, L, C$ or their combination,whose elements and arrangements are not known to us. Measurements outside the box reveal that $e = 75 \sin(\omega t) \text{ V}$ and $i = 1.5 \sin(\omega t + 45^\circ) \text{ A}$. Then,the wrong statement is:

  • A
    There must be a capacitor in the box.
  • B
    There must be an inductor in the box.
  • C
    There must be a resistance in the box.
  • D
    The power factor is $0.707$.

In an $A.C.$ circuit,the current:

If $C, R, L$ and $I$ denote capacity, resistance, inductance and electric current respectively, the quantities having the same dimensions of time are :
$(1)$ $C R$
$(2)$ $\frac{L}{R}$
$(3)$ $\sqrt{L C}$
$(4)$ $L I^2$

You are given many resistances,capacitors and inductors. These are connected to a variable $DC$ voltage source (the first two circuits) or an $AC$ voltage source of $50 \ Hz$ frequency (the next three circuits) in different ways as shown in Column $II$. When a current $I$ (steady state for $DC$ or rms for $AC$) flows through the circuit,the corresponding voltage $V_1$ and $V_2$ (indicated in circuits) are related as shown in Column $I$. Match the two.

In an $LCR$ series circuit,when $L$ is removed from the circuit,the phase difference between voltage and current is $\frac{\pi}{3}$. If $C$ is removed from the circuit instead of $L$,the phase difference is again $\frac{\pi}{3}$. The power factor of the circuit is $(\tan 60^{\circ}=\sqrt{3})$.

In an electrical circuit,$R, L, C$ and an $a.c.$ voltage source are all connected in series. When $L$ is removed from the circuit,the phase difference between the voltage and the current in the circuit is $\pi /3$. If instead,$C$ is removed from the circuit,the phase difference is again $\pi /3$. The power factor of the circuit is
