NEETPhysicsAlternating CurrentMCQ+4 / −1
A coil of self-inductance L is connected in series with a bulb B and an AC source. Brightness of the bulb decreases when
- Aa capacitance of reactance XC = XL is included in the same citcuit.
- Ban iron rod is inserted in the coil.
- Cfrequency of the AC source is decreased.
- Dnumber of turns in the coil is reduced.

Correct answer: B
If a bulb B and AC source are connected in series with self-inductance coil, then in such case the brightness of the bulb decreases when an iron rod is inserted in the coil which further increases impedance of the circuit.
