When an ac source of emf
is connected across a circuit, the phase difference between the emf e and the current i in the circuit is observed to be
, as shown in the diagram. If the circuit consists possibly only of RC or RL or LC in series, find the relationship between the two elements

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
From graph, it is clear that current leads voltage.
So possible components are R and C
For R-C circuit,


If
