Physics · JEE | Alternating Current

हिन्दी

What is the term used for the current that flows in a purely inductive or capacitive circuit without dissipating any average power?

  1. A
    Transient current
  2. B
    Eddy current
  3. C
    Displacement current
  4. D
    Wattless current
View Answer & Solution

Correct answer · Option D

Wattless current

Explanation

Since the average power dissipated in a pure inductor or capacitor is zero, the current flowing through them is referred to as wattless current.
