In an LCR series circuit, at resonance,
Options
- Athe voltage across R is zero.
- Bthe voltage across R equals to applied voltage.
- Cthe voltage across C is zero.
- Dthe voltage across C equals applied voltage.
Correct answer
B. the voltage across R equals to applied voltage.
Step-by-step solution
In an LCR series circuit, the total applied voltage is given by .
At resonance, the inductive reactance equals the capacitive reactance (X_L = X_C).
Substituting in the voltage equation, we get .
Thus, the voltage across the resistor is equal to the applied voltage.
Answer: the voltage across R equals to applied voltage.
