Question

A series RL circuit contains two resistors and two inductors. The resistors are 33 Ω and 47 Ω. The inductors have inductive reactances of 60 Ω and 30 Ω. Angle theta is _____.

GPT-5 mini · Answer

Total R = 33 + 47 = 80 Ω.  
Total X_L = 60 + 30 = 90 Ω.  
θ = arctan(X_L / R) = arctan(90 / 80) = arctan(1.125) ≈ 48.4°.

(The current lags the applied voltage by ≈ 48.4°.)
