The diagram shows a capacitor (C ) and a resistor (R ) connected in series to an ac source. (v₁ ) and (v₂ ) are voltmeters and (A ) is an ammeter Consider now the following statements I. Readings in (A ) and (V₂ ) are always in phase II. Reading in (V₁ ) is ahead in phase with reading in (V₂ ) III. Readings in (A ) and (V₁ ) are always in phase which of these statements are/is correct.

Options

  1. AI only
  2. BII only
  3. CI and II only
  4. DII and III only

Correct answer

B. II only

Step-by-step solution
