NEET Physics AC Voltage MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Hard-Class 12

Which of the following statements about AC voltage in a series RLC circuit are correct?

A

The current through the resistor, inductor, and capacitor is the same at any time.

B

The phases of voltage across the inductor, resistor, and capacitor are always identical.

C

The voltage across the capacitor is in phase with the charge on it.

D

The current in the circuit can lead or lag the voltage depending on the circuit elements.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The current through the resistor, inductor, and capacitor in a series RLC circuit is indeed the same at all times, as stated in the context. However, the phases of the voltages across these elements can differ, and the voltage across the capacitor is not necessarily in phase with the charge.
