Given below are two statements: Statement I: When the frequency of an a.c. source in a series LCR circuit increases, the current in the circuit first increases, attains a maximum value and then decreases. Statement II: In a series LCR circuit, the value of power factor at resonance is one. choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
aStatement-I is incorrect but statement-II is correct.
bBoth statement-I and statement-II are incorrect.
cStatement-I is correct but statement-II is incorrect.
dBoth statement-I and statement-II are correct.
✓ Correct answer: d) Both statement-I and statement-II are correct.
ExplanationIn the series of RLC circuit – At resonance, XL = XC Impedance is minimum so the current will be maximum, from the figure if f is increase the impedance also increase then current decrease, so statement (I) is correct.In RLC circuit at resonance, XL = XC So, the circuit behaves as pure resistive circuit the power factor will be unit so statement II is also correct.
