Question

How does a lamp in series with a capacitor behave when connected to an AC source?

विकल्प

• The lamp will not glow because capacitive reactance is zero.

• No current flows because the average power is zero.

• After charging, no current flows, and the lamp will not glow.

• Current flows in the circuit, and the lamp will shine.

Answer 1

With an AC source, the capacitor offers capacitive reactance and current flows in the circuit. Consequently, the lamp will shine.
