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

A

I only

B

II only

C

I and II only

D

II and III only

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
