NEET Physics AC Voltage MCQ Question
Refer to the diagram of the AC voltage across an inductor and capacitor. If the current through the capacitor leads the voltage by π/2, what is the phase difference between the voltage across the inductor and the capacitor?
π radians
π/2 radians
0 radians
π/4 radians
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In the context of AC circuits, the current through a capacitor leads the voltage by π/2 while the current through an inductor lags the voltage by π/2. Therefore, the phase difference between the voltage across an inductor and a capacitor is π radians.
