Q. In a series resonant $R-L-C$ circuit, the voltage across $R$ is $100\, V$ and the value of $R = 1000\, \Omega$. The capacitance of the capacitor is $2 \times 10^{-6}$ F; angular frequency of $AC$ is $200\, rad \, s^{-1}$. Then the potential difference across the inductance coil is

KCETKCET 2010Alternating Current

Solution:

The current in the circuit
$i =\frac{V_{R}}{R}$
$=\frac{100}{1000}=0.1\, A$
At resonance,
$V_{L} =V_{C}=i X_{C}=\frac{i}{\omega C}$
$=\frac{0.1}{200 \times 2 \times 10^{-6}}$
$=250\, V$
