An alternating emf is applied across a parallel combination of a resistance R, capacitance C and an inductance L. If 
and I C are the currents through R, L and C respectively, then the diagram which correctly represents, the phase relationship among 
and source emf E, is given by
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Current in inductance I L lags behind the voltage by π/2. Current in resistance I R is in phase with voltage, while current in capacitance I C leads the voltage by a phase of π/2.
