Physics Question on Alternating current
An LCR series circuit, connected to a source E, is at resonance. Then
A
the voltage across R is zero
B
the voltage across R equals applied voltage
C
the voltage across C is zero
D
the voltage across L equals applied voltage
Answer
the voltage across R equals applied voltage
Explanation
Solution
Equation of voltage E=VR2+(VL−VC)2
At resonance (series fircuit)
VL=VC⇒E=VR
ie, whole applied voltage appeared across the resistance.
