COMEDK · Physics · 23. Alternating Current

In which of the following circuit do we find the current and voltage in phase?

  1. A A purely capacitive circuit
  2. B A circuit in which an inductor and a capacitor are in series.
  3. C A purely inductive circuit
  4. D A purely resistive circuit
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) A purely resistive circuit

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In an AC circuit, the phase relationship between voltage \(V\) and current \(I\) depends on the nature of the components present. For a purely capacitive circuit, the current leads the voltage by a phase angle of \(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\). For a purely inductive circuit, the current…
