Q.

Given below are two statements:                                    [2023]

Statement I: Maximum power is dissipated in a circuit containing an inductor, a capacitor and a resistor connected in series with an AC source, when resonance occurs.

Statement II: Maximum power is dissipated in a circuit containing pure resistor due to zero phase difference between current and voltage.

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

1 Statement I is false but Statement II is true  
2 Statement I is true but Statement II is false  
3 Both Statement I and Statement II are true  
4 Both Statement I and Statement II are false  

Ans.

(3)

Power will be maximum when impedance is minimum

Z=[R2+(XL-XC)2]12

At resonance, XL=XC

Zmin=R
