Given below are two statements : In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- Statement I is true but Statement II is false
- Statement I is false but Statement II is true
- Both Statement I and Statement II are true
- Both Statement I and Statement II are false
Answer
(3) Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Solution
I = VZ, Z = R2 + (XL - XC)2 R
Statement I: at resonance XL = XC, so Z = R (least) and I is maximum. True.
Statement II: purely resistive (same R): IR = VR VZ = ILCR, so it is never less. True.
Answer: (3)
