When a capacitor is connected in series LR circuit, the alternating current flowing in the circuit

Options

  1. Ais zero.
  2. Bremains constant.
  3. Cincreases.
  4. Ddecreases.

Correct answer

C. increases.

Step-by-step solution

Impedance in LR circuit, Z = R ^2+ X _ L ^2 Impedance in LCR circuit, Z= R^2+ (X_L-X_C )^2 When capacitor is connected in series, Z decreases. I= V Z I 1 Z When Z decreases, I increases.
