What happens to the inductive reactance and the current in a purely inductive circuit if the frequency is halved?
Show Hint
- Both, inducting reactance and current will be doubled.
- Inductive reactance will be doubled and current will be halved.
- Both, inductive reactance and current will be halved.
- Inductive reactance will be halved and current will be doubled.
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The rms current in a purely inductive circuit is \(I = \frac{V}{X_L}\). With V unchanged and \(X_L\) halved, I is doubled.
Answer: (4) Inductive reactance will be halved and current will be doubled.

- Two masses $m$ and $\frac{m}{2}$ are connected at the two ends of a massless rigid rod of length $l$. The rod is suspended by a thin wire of torsional constant $k$ at the centre of mass of the rod-mass system(see figure). Because of torsional constant $k$, the restoring torque is $\tau =k\theta$ for angular displacement $\theta$. If the rod is rota ted by $\theta_0$ and released, the tension in it when it passes through its mean position will be:

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Choke coil is simply a coil having a large inductance but a small resistance. Choke coils are used with fluorescent mercury-tube fittings. If household electric power is directly connected to a mercury tube, the tube will be damaged.
Reason (R): By using the choke coil, the voltage across the tube is reduced by a factor \( \frac{R}{\sqrt{R^2 + \omega^2 L^2}} \), where \( \omega \) is the frequency of the supply across resistor \( R \) and inductor \( L \). If the choke coil were not used, the voltage across the resistor would be the same as the applied voltage.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
