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 the same voltage source.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct option from the options given below :

  • A
    Statement $I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false.
  • B
    Statement $I$ is false but Statement $II$ is true.
  • C
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true.
  • D
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false.

Give the name of the physical quantity in an $LCR$ circuit that corresponds to mass $m$ in forced oscillations.

You are given many resistances,capacitors and inductors. These are connected to a variable $DC$ voltage source (the first two circuits) or an $AC$ voltage source of $50 \ Hz$ frequency (the next three circuits) in different ways as shown in Column $II$. When a current $I$ (steady state for $DC$ or rms for $AC$) flows through the circuit,the corresponding voltage $V_1$ and $V_2$ (indicated in circuits) are related as shown in Column $I$. Match the two.

Consider the infinite ladder circuit shown below. For which angular frequency $\omega$ will the circuit behave like a pure inductance?

In the circuit shown in the figure, neglecting the source resistance, the voltmeter and ammeter readings respectively are

Assertion : In the purely resistive element of a series $LCR$ $AC$ circuit,the maximum value of $rms$ current increases with an increase in the angular frequency of the applied $e.m.f$.
Reason : $I_{\max} = \frac{\varepsilon_{\max}}{Z}$,where $Z = \sqrt{R^2 + (\omega L - \frac{1}{\omega C})^2}$ and $I_{\max}$ is the peak current in a cycle.
