Correct answer: C
- Series LCR circuit current
For a series LCR circuit, the current amplitude is
where the impedance is
The current is maximum at resonance frequency , where
- Nature of circuit to the left of resonance
To the left of , we have .
Then:
- inductive reactance: is smaller,
- capacitive reactance: is larger.
So,
which means the net reactance
Hence the circuit behaves mainly capacitive.
So:
- (a) True
- (b) False
- Impedance at resonance
At ,
so the reactances cancel.
Thus,
Therefore:
- (c) True
- (d) False
Impedance is minimum at resonance, but it is equal to , not zero.
- Correct combination
The correct statements are:
So the correct option is
