Step-by-step solution

In a series LCR circuit, the voltage across the inductor (V_L)leadsthecurrent(I) leads the current (I) by 90∘90^{{}^{\circ}}, while the voltage across the capacitor (V_C)lagsthecurrentby90∘) lags the current by 90^{{}^{\circ}}.

This means the phase angle \phi between the total voltage and the current is 0∘0^{{}^{\circ}}.

Looking at the given options, Fig. (d) correctly shows the phase angle ϕ=0∘\phi = 0^{{}^{\circ}} with the voltage VRV_R in phase with the current II.
