The total power dissipated in the circuit, shown in the figure, is 1 kW.

The voltmeter, across the load, reads 200 V. The value of X_L is ___________.

1. 11.43
2. 17.3
3. 117.3 to 17.4
4. 17.3 to 17.4

Correct Option: D

Power dissipation = 1 kW = 1000 W
⇒ 1000 = 2² .1 + 10². R
[Power dissipation occurs in 1 Ω and Resistor R]
⇒ 1000 = 4 + 100 R
⇒ R = 9.96 Ω
Now ,
⇒ 200² = 100 R² + 100 X_L²
⇒ 10X_L = 173.43
⇒ X_L = 17.34
