NEET Physics (general) Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Medium-Class 12

Assertion (A): In a series RLC circuit, the phase difference between the current and voltage depends on the values of resistance, inductance, and capacitance. | Reason (R): The phase difference is determined by the ratio of reactance to resistance.

A

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

B

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The phase difference in a series RLC circuit is related to the impedance, which involves both reactance (due to inductance and capacitance) and resistance. This is captured in the relation 1/tan(ϕ\phi) = (X_L - X_C)/R, where ϕ\phi is the phase angle.
