उत्तर

We have seen that a voltage v = vm sin ωt  applied to a series RLC circuit drives a current in the circuit given by `"i"  =  "i"_"m" sin(omega t + ∅)` Where

`"I"_"m" = "v"_"m"/"z" and ∅ = tan^-1 (("X"_"c"-"X"_"L")/("R"))`

Therefore, the instantaneous power p supplied by the source is

`"p" = "vi" = ("v"_"m"sin omega t) xx ["i"_"m" sin(omega t + ∅)]`

= `("v"_"m""i"_"m")/(2)[cos ∅ - cos(2omega t + ∅)]`

The average power over a cycle is given by the average of the two terms in R.H.S. of the above equation. It is only the second term which is time-dependent. Its average is zero (the positive half of the cosine cancels the negative half). Therefore,

`"P" = ("v"_"m""i"_"m")/(2) cos ∅ = ("v"_"m")/sqrt2 ("i"_"m")/sqrt2 cos ∅`

= `"V"  "I" cos ∅`

This can also be written as
`"P" = "I"^2 "Z"cos ∅`

So, the average power dissipated depends not only on the voltage and current but also on the cosine of the phase angle ∅ between them. The quantity cos ∅ is called the power factor.
