A series LCR circuit with L = 5.0 H, C = 80 μF and R = 40 Ω is connected to a variable frequency 200 V source. The amplitude of current at the resonant frequency is |
5.0 A 6.2 A 7.1 A 8.4 A |
5.0 A |
The correct answer is Option (3) → 7.1 A At resonance, impedance $Z = R$ Given: $R = 40 \ \Omega$, $V = 200 \ \text{V}$ Current amplitude: $I = \frac{V}{R}$ $I = \frac{200}{40} = 5 \ \text{A}$ ∴ Amplitude of current at resonance $= 5 \ \text{A}$ |
