For option (A) Solution : Expression of voltage of time t : v = vm (sin, ωt + ϕ)

Expression of current of time t : i = im (sinωt)                     
At t = 0 ; 100 = 200sinϕ ⇒ ϕ=π6 rad ; current lags voltage by π6 rad
For option (B) Solution : R=Zcosϕ=VIcosϕ=200V400mAcosπ6=2503Ω
For option (C) Solution : X=Zsinϕ=VIsinϕ=200400sin(π/6) = 250Ω
For option (D) Solution : Pav=VmIm2cosϕ=203W
