Pure R, L and C Circuits
In the graphical representation of e.m.f. '' and current '' versus '' for an a.c. circuit, both emf and current reach zero, minimum and maximum value at the same time. The circuit element connected to the source will be
Show answer and solution
Answer: (c)
- Emf and current reaching zero, maximum and minimum together means zero phase difference.
- Only a pure resistor gives and in phase; L and C give .
- So the answer is (c) pure resistor.
