MHT CET · Physics · Alternating Current
When a capacitor is connected in series LR circuit, the alternating current flowing in the circuit
- A increases.
- B decreases.
- C remains constant.
- D is zero.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) increases.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(z=\sqrt{{R^{2}+\left(X_{L}-X_{C}\right)^{2}}}\)
With capacitor the value of \(z\) decreases. So, current increases.
With capacitor the value of \(z\) decreases. So, current increases.
