AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the relationship between current and voltage in an AC circuit, particularly when the current is zero while the voltage is at its maximum. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding AC Circuit Behavior**: In an alternating current (AC) circuit, both current and voltage vary sinusoidally with time. The voltage can be expressed as \( V(t) = V_m \sin(\omega t) \), where \( V_m \) is the maximum voltage and \( \omega \) is the angular frequency. 2. **Identifying Phase Relationship**: The current in an AC circuit can also be expressed in a similar form: \( I(t) = I_m \sin(\omega t + \phi) \), where \( I_m \) is the maximum current and \( \phi \) is the phase difference between the current and voltage. ...
