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

Options

  1. Aincreases.
  2. Bdecreases.
  3. Cremains constant.
  4. Dis zero.

Correct answer

A. increases.

Step-by-step solution

z= R²+ (X_ L -X_ C )² With capacitor the value of z decreases. So, current increases.
