MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

1

A pure resistive circuit element $X$, when connected to an AC supply of peak voltage 200 V , gives a peak current of 5 A . A second circuit element $Y$, when connected to the same AC supply also gives the same value of peak current but the current lags behind by $90^{\circ}$. If the series combination of $X$ and $Y$ is connected to the same supply, what will be the rms value of current?

A resistance $$R$$ and inductance $$L$$ and a capacitor $$C$$ all are connected in series with an $$\mathrm{AC}$$ supply. The resistance of $$R$$ is $$24 \mathrm{~ohm}$$ and for a given frequency, the inductive reactance of $$L$$ is 36 ohm and capacitive reactance of $$C$$ is $$24 \mathrm{~ohm}$$. If the current in the circuit is $$5 \mathrm{~amp}$$. Find the potential difference across $$R, L$$ and $$C$$.
