Resonance, Bandwidth & Q Factor question from JEE Main 2024 (6 Apr, Shift 1)

Q43JEE Main 2024 · 6 APR · SHIFT 1Easy

Resonance, Bandwidth & Q Factor

Given below are two statements:

Statement I: In an LCR series circuit, current is maximum at resonance.

Statement II: Current in a purely resistive circuit can never be less than that in a series LCR circuit when connected to same voltage source.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Statement I: at resonance Z=RZ = R is minimum, so current is maximum. True.
  2. Statement II: ZLCR=R2+(XL−XC)2≥RZ_{LCR} = \sqrt{R^2 + (X_L - X_C)^2} \ge R, so current through RR alone is never less than in the LCR circuit. True.
  3. So the answer is (c) both statements are true.
