Electro Magnetic Induction And Alternating Currents Question 137
Question: 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 an ammeter Consider now the following statements I. Readings in A and V2 are always in phase II. Reading in V1 is ahead in phase with reading in V2 III. Readings in A and V1 are always in phase which of these statements are/is correct [AMU (Med.) 2001]
Options:
A) I only
B) II only
C) I and II only
D) II and III only
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
In RC series circuit voltage across the capacitor leads the voltage across the resistance by $ \frac{\pi }{2} $
