In a simple $L-R$ circuit with an $A.C.$ source,the potential difference at any instant across the inductor and the resistor are $V_L$ and $V_R$ respectively,and the $A.C.$ source has a potential difference $V_{AC}$ at the same instant. Then:

  • A
    $V_L^2 + V_R^2 = V_{AC}^2$
  • B
    $V_L + V_R = V_{AC}$
  • C
    $V_L^2 - V_R^2 = V_{AC}^2$
  • D
    $V_L^3 + V_R^3 = V_{AC}^3$

$A$ circuit element $X$ when connected to an a.c. supply of peak voltage $100\,V$ gives a peak current of $5\,A$ which is in phase with the voltage. $A$ second element $Y$ when connected to the same a.c. supply also gives the same value of peak current which lags behind the voltage by $\frac{\pi}{2}$. If $X$ and $Y$ are connected in series to the same supply,what will be the rms value of the current in ampere?
