Question
A choke coil is preferred to a rheostat in ac circuit as
- It consumes almost zero power
- It increases current
- It increases power
- It increases voltage
The correct answer is: It consumes almost zero power
A choke coil contains high inductance but negligible resistance, due to which power loss becomes appreciably small.
