Detailed Solution

As R, L and C are connected in series, the maximum current through each element remains the same. Therefore, the peak value of current through each element remains the same.
The average power delivered by the source is the average power dissipated in the resistor. Real power is not consumed either in inductor or capacitor.

Real Power $= {I^{2}}_{r m s} R$
