A resistor of resistance \(R\), inductor of inductive reactance \(2 R\) and a capacitor of capacitive reactance \(X_C\) are connected in series to an a.c. source. If the series LCR circuit is in resonance, then the power factor of the circuit and the value \(\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{C}}\) are respectively

  1. A 0.5 and 4R
  2. B 1 and 2 R
  3. C 0.5 and 2R
  4. D I and 4R
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 1 and 2 R

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In LCR series circuit, at resonance, \(\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{C}}=\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{L}}=2 \mathrm{R}\) Power factor, \(\cos \phi=\frac{R}{Z}=\frac{R}{R}=1\)
