In LCR series circuit with resistance R, inductive reactance \( X_L \) and capacitive reactance \( X_C \), the maximum current '\( I_0 \)' at resonance is given as :

  1. A \( I_0 = \frac{V_0}{(X_L - X_C)} \)
  2. B \( I_0 = \frac{V_0}{R} \)
  3. C \( I_0 = \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{R^2 + (X_L - X_C)^2}} \)
  4. D \( I_0 = \frac{V_0}{R^2} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( I_0 = \frac{V_0}{R} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

At resonance: \( X_L = X_C \) Impedance: \( Z = \sqrt{R^2 + (X_L - X_C)^2} = R \) Current: \( I_0 = \frac{V_0}{Z} = \frac{V_0}{R} \)
