In any ac circuit, is the applied Instantaneous voltage equal to the algebraic sum of the instantaneous voltages across the series elements of the circuit ? Is the same true for rms voltage ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Yes, the applied voltage equal to the algebraic sum of the instantaneous voltages across the series elements of the circuit
No, it is not true for rms voltage because there is some phase differences across different elements of circuits.
