Practice question

**Power factor** cos φ = R/Z, 0≤cos φ≤1, at resonance cos φ=1 maximum power, pure L or C cos φ=0 zero average power, current wattless because energy stored returned. Instantaneous power when current maximum in pure L: I=I_peak, V=0 because V leads 90°, so P= V I =0 at that instant, average zero. RMS current: I = (V/R) = (165/55) = 3 A . Average power: P = I² R = 3² × 55 = 495 W . Applying X_L = ωL, X_C = 1/ωC, Z = √(R² + (X_L - X_C)²), I_rms = V_rms/Z, P = V_rms I_rms cosφ, V_s/V_p = N_s/N_p, calculation gives
