Given:

C=40uF

R=50ohm

V=30Volt

f=60Hz

1) To find rms current

I rms = Ip/?2

But, Ip= V/R

          = 30/50

        Ip= 0.6 Amp

I rms = 0.6/?2

        = 0.4243

2) rms Voltage drop= Irms * R

                          = 0.4243 * 50

                              = 21.2134

4) phase angle= T * f * 360

                      = 0.0167 * 60 * 360

                       = 360
