NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Consider a series RLC circuit driven by an alternating voltage source. In the context of the phasor diagram, if the resistive, inductive, and capacitive reactances are represented as vectors, which angle represents the phase difference between the source voltage and the current?
The angle between the total impedance vector and the resistive vector.
The angle between the total impedance vector and the inductive reactance vector.
The angle between the capacitive reactance vector and the resistive vector.
The angle between the inductive reactance vector and the capacitive reactance vector.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The phase difference between the source voltage and the current is determined by the angle between the total impedance vector and the resistive vector, as the resistive component is in phase with the current.
