Question:

For a series LCR circuit, at the condition of resonance, the value of power factor will be:

Options:

Zero

1.0

0.2

0.5

Correct Answer:

1.0

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → 1.0

for power factor,

$P.f=\frac{R}{Z}=\frac{R}{\sqrt{R+(X_C-X_L)^2}}$

In resonance,

$X_C=X_L⇒P.f.=1$
