Question: What is the impedance of a circuit with a 4Ω resistor and a 3Ω inductor at a frequency of 60Hz?
Options:
Correct Answer: 5Ω
Solution:
The impedance (Z) is calculated using Z = √(R^2 + (X_L)^2). The inductive reactance X_L = 2πfL, where L = 3Ω. Therefore, Z = √(4^2 + 3^2) = √(16 + 9) = √25 = 5Ω.
