Circuit analysis (Question 2 (15 Marks)) — UPSC Physics Optional IFoS 2014 Paper I

An inductance L, capacitance C and resistance R are connected in series to form a circuit with AC source driving with E_{\text{rms}} = 120\text{ V} at f = 60\text{ Hz}. Compute the power factor and average power dissipated in the resistance if R = 200\ \Omega, X_L = 80\ \Omega and X_C = 150\ \Omega.
