In an AC series circuit, the instanctaneous current is zero when the instantaneous voltage is xamimum. Connected to the source may be a

A

ideal inductor

B

ideal capacitor

C

combination of ideal inductor and capacitor

D

ideal resistor .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C

(a,b,c ) : It is given that current is maximum when instantaneous voltage is zero hence phase difference between voltage and current is `pi//2` . With the given information we cannot say whether current is leading or voltage hence inductor and capacitor both are possible . Options (a), (b) and (c ) are correct.
