Correct answer: B
- Use the rms current relation for a capacitor
For a capacitor in AC circuit,
m rms} = V_{ m rms}\,\omega C$$ Given: - $I_{ m rms} = 6.9\,\mu A = 6.9\times 10^{-6}\,A$ - $V_{ m rms} = 230\,V$ - $\omega = 600\,\text{rad/s}$ We need to find $C$. 2. **Rearrange the formula** $$C = \frac{I_{ m rms}}{\omega V_{ m rms}}$$ Substitute values: $$C = \frac{6.9\times 10^{-6}}{600\times 230}$$ 3. **Calculate** First compute the denominator: $$600\times 230 = 138000 = 1.38\times 10^5$$ So, $$C = \frac{6.9\times 10^{-6}}{1.38\times 10^5}$$ $$C = 5\times 10^{-11}\,F$$ 4. **Convert into pF** Since $$1\,pF = 10^{-12}\,F$$ Therefore, $$C = 5\times 10^{-11}\,F = 50\times 10^{-12}\,F = 50\,pF$$ 5. **Check options** - A: $5\,pF$ - B: $50\,pF$ ✅ - C: $100\,pF$ - D: $200\,pF$ Hence the correct option is **B**.More from Electromagnetic Waves
