NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

In an LC circuit, which of the following statements about energy storage and oscillation are correct?

A

The energy stored in the capacitor decreases while the energy in the inductor increases during oscillation.

B

The total energy in the LC circuit increases over time due to continuous oscillation.

C

The energy in the inductor is always greater than that in the capacitor during oscillation.

D

At maximum charge, the energy in the capacitor is zero, while the energy in the inductor is maximum.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

As the capacitor discharges, the energy stored in it decreases while the energy stored in the inductor increases, demonstrating the energy exchange between the two components. This reflects the conservation of energy in the LC circuit.
