A \( 95 \, \text{mH} \) inductor is connected to a \( 220 \, \text{V} \), \( 50 \, \text{Hz} \) source. What is the peak
**Current relative to voltage** in resistor in phase, φ=0°, power factor cos φ=1, maximum power, unlike inductor/capacitor where average power zero due to 90° phase shift, explaining why resistor heats while pure L/C does not. X_L = ω L , ω = 2π × 50 = 314 rad/s . L = 95 × 10⁻³ H . X_L = 314 × 0.095 = 29.83 Ω . RMS current: I = (V/X_L) = (220/29.83) ≈ 7.375 A . Peak current: i_m = √(2) I = 1.414 × 7.375 ≈ 10.43 A . Applying X_L = ωL, X_C = 1/ωC, Z = √(R² + (X_L - X_C)²), I_rms
