A coil with negligible resistance has 50V across it with 10 mA. The inductive reactance is_____________?

Correct answer: D. 5000 ohms

  • A. 50 ohms
  • B. 500 ohms
  • C. 1000 ohms
  • D. 5000 ohms

Explanation

For a coil with negligible resistance, the applied voltage is across its inductive reactance, so Xₗ = V/I = 50/0.01 = 5000 Ω. Hence option d is correct.
