A) VA
B) VARs
C) W
Wattless Power
See reactive power.
RL Circuit
An electrical circuit consisting of resistors (R) and inductors (L) used to filter signals or store energy.
Power Values
Quantitative measurements that represent the rate at which energy is used, produced, or transferred within a system.
- Explain and determine the diverse kinds of power in RL circuits, such as true power, apparent power, and reactive power.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Wattless power in an RL circuit is represented by VARs (Volt-Ampere Reactive), indicating reactive power where energy is stored temporarily in the inductive components and returned to the source, rather than being dissipated as useful work.
