प्रश्न
A light bulb and a solenoid are connected in series across an ac source of voltage. Explain, how the glow of the light bulb will be affected when an iron rod is inserted in the solenoid.

उत्तर
When the iron rod is inserted, the magnetic field inside the solenoid is increased. This increases the inductance of the solenoid. So the inductive reactance of the solenoid increases.
Consequently, a large fraction of the applied AC voltage appears across the solenoid. As a result of this, there is a less voltage across the bulb and the brightness of the bulb decreases.

You are given three circuit elements X, Y and Z. When the element X is connected across an a.c. source of a given voltage, the current and the voltage are in the same phase. When the element Y is connected in series with X across the source, voltage is ahead of the current in phase by π/4 . But the current is ahead of the voltage in phase by π/4when Z is connected in series with X across the source. Identify the circuit elements X, Y and Z. When all the three elements are connected in series across the same source, determine the impedance of the circuit.Draw a plot of the current versus the frequency of applied source and mention the significance of this plot.
