When L and C are in series, voltage across them is in phase (True/false). The current in them is in phase (true/false).

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

False, True
In series current at any time is same in entire circuit. Hence, current is in phase in both L and C. In risistor, voltage is in same phase as current byt in inductro, voltage leads current by `(pi)//2`. So inductor voltage leads resistance voltage by `(pi)//(2)`.
