Can the voltage drop across the inductor or capacitro in a series LCR circuit be greater than the applied voltage of the ac souce?
Justify your answer.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Yes, the voltages dros the inductor or the capacitor in a series circuit can be greater than the applied voltage are not in phase and they cannot be added like ordinary numbers.
