At resonance in series RLC circuit current is maximum because:
Select the correct option:
Solution
Incorrect! Answer:
Z minimal equals R
In a series RLC circuit, the current is I=V/Z.
- Resonance occurs when XL=XC, which means ωL−1/(ωC)=0.
- At this point, the impedance Z=R2+02=R.
- Since R is the absolute minimum possible value for Z, the current I=V/R reaches its maximum amplitude.

Solution
Correct Answer:
Z minimal equals R
In a series RLC circuit, the current is I=V/Z.
- Resonance occurs when XL=XC, which means ωL−1/(ωC)=0.
- At this point, the impedance Z=R2+02=R.
- Since R is the absolute minimum possible value for Z, the current I=V/R reaches its maximum amplitude.
