Question

An alternating emf is applied across a parallel combination of a resistance R, capacitance C and an inductance L. If IR, IL, IC the currents through R, L and C, respectively, then the diagram which correctly represents the phase relationship among IR, IL, IC and source emf E, is given by

Moderate
Solution

IL lags behind IR by a phase of π/2 while IC leads by a phase of π/2.
