The diagram shows a capacitor $C$ and a resistor $R$ connected in series to an $ac$ source. $V_1$ and $V_2$ are voltmeters and $A$ is an ammeter. Consider the following statements:
$I$. Readings in $A$ and $V_2$ are always in phase.
$II$. Reading in $V_1$ lags behind the reading in $V_2$ by $\frac{\pi}{2}$.
$III$. Readings in $A$ and $V_1$ are always in phase.
Which of these statements is/are correct?

  • A
    $I$ only
  • B
    $II$ only
  • C
    $I$ and $II$ only
