Physics · Alternating Current Circuits
In a series R–L–C circuit connected to an AC supply, the phase relationship between the supply voltage and current depends on the reactances. At the condition of electrical resonance, which of the following statements correctly describes the circuit behavior?
- 1The capacitive reactance becomes twice the inductive reactance, and the current lags the voltage by 90°.
- 2The inductive reactance exceeds the capacitive reactance, and the power factor becomes zero.
- 3The inductive reactance equals the capacitive reactance, and the current is completely in phase with the applied voltage.✓
- 4The resistance of the circuit is minimized, causing the voltage to lead the current by 45°.
Correct answer
The inductive reactance equals the capacitive reactance, and the current is completely in phase with the applied voltage.
