A resistance \(R\) draws power \(P\) when connected to an AC source. If an inductance is now placed in series with the resistance, such that the impedance of the circuit becomes \(Z\) the power drawn will be:
\(1 .\) \(P \left(\frac{R}{Z}\right)^{2}\)
\(2 .\) \(P \sqrt{\frac{R}{Z}}\)
\(3 .\) \(P \left(\frac{R}{Z}\right)\)
\(4 .\) \(P\)

A series \(RC\) circuit is connected to an alternating voltage source. Consider two situations:
(1) When the capacitor is air-filled. 
(2) When the capacitor is mica filled. 
The current through the resistor is \(i\) and the voltage across the capacitor is \(V\) then:
1. \(V_a< V_b\)
2. \(V_a> V_b\)
3. \(i_a>i_b\)
4. \(V_a = V_b\)
