Correct answer: 4

  1. At resonance in a series LCR circuit

    The inductive and capacitive reactances cancel: XL=XCX_L = X_CXL​=XC​ So the impedance becomes purely resistive: Z=R=8 ΩZ = R = 8\,\OmegaZ=R=8Ω

  2. Given peak voltage

    Peak voltage: V0=250 VV_0 = 250\,\text{V}V0​=250V

    RMS voltage is: Vrms=V02=2502 VV_{\text{rms}} = \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{250}{\sqrt{2}}\,\text{V}Vrms​=2​V0​​=2​250​V

  3. Power dissipated at resonance

    Since the circuit is purely resistive at resonance, P=Vrms2RP = \frac{V_{\text{rms}}^2}{R}P=RVrms2​​

    Substitute values: P=(2502)28P = \frac{\left(\frac{250}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^2}{8}P=8(2​250​)2​

    P=2502/28=6250016P = \frac{250^2/2}{8} = \frac{62500}{16}P=82502/2​=1662500​

    P=3906.25 WP = 3906.25\,\text{W}P=3906.25W

  4. Convert to kW

    P=3.90625 kWP = 3.90625\,\text{kW}P=3.90625kW

    Therefore, x≈4x \approx 4x≈4 to the nearest integer.

  5. Comparison with stored answer

    Derived answer: 444

    Stored correct answer: 444

    Hence, the answers agree.
