When are the voltage and current in LCR-series ac circuit in phase?(a) XL = XC(b) XL > XC(c) XL < XC(d) IndeterminantThe question was posed to me in homework.This interesting question is from AC Voltage Applied to a Series LCR Circuit in chapter Alternating Current of Physics – Class 12

Answer» CORRECT choice is (a) XL = XC

The best explanation: When XL = XC, the resultant vector for net REACTANCE will be zero and the value of θ will also be zero. HENCE, when current and voltage will be in the same phase, it is called as a purely resistive circuit and in this CASE the peak current will be maximum.
