Statement 1: In a series LCR circuit at resonance condition power consumed by ciccuit is maximum.
Statement 2 : At resonance condition, the effective resistance of circuit is maximum.

Options

A. If both the assertion and reason are true and reason is a true explantion of the assertion.
B. If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not true the correct explantion of the assertion.
C. If the assertion is true but reason false
D. If both the assertion and reason are false.

Answer

C

Explanation

`P_(av)=(VI cos phi)/2`
At resonance condition `cos phi=1`
But `Z=R`
which is minimum.
