The diagram shows a capacitor `C` and a resistor `R` connected in series to an `AC` source. `V_(1)` and `V_(2)` are voltmeters and `A` is ammeter

Now, consider the following statements :
(I) Reading in `A` and `V_(2)` are always in phase.
(II) Reading in `V_(1)` is ahead in phase with reading in `V_(2)`,
(III) Reading in `A` and `V_(1)` are always in phase. Which of these statements are/is correct

Options

A. I only
B. II only
C. I and II only
D. II and III only

Answer

B

Explanation

Voltage across capacitor leads the voltage across the resistance by `(pi)/(2)`
