Alternating Current Ques 17
17. In the given circuit the reading of voltmeter $V_1$ and $V_2$ are $300$ volts each. The reading of the voltmeter $V_3$ and ammeter $A$ are respectively
[2010]

(a) $150 $ $V, 2.2 $ $A$
(b) $220 $ $V, 2.2 $ $A$
(c) $220 $ $V, 2.0 $ $A$
(d) $100 $ $V, 2.0$ $ A$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 17.(b)
Solution:
- (b) As $V_L=V_C=300$ $ V$, resonance will take place
$\therefore \quad V_R=220 $ $V$
Current, $I=\frac{220}{100}=2.2 $ $A$
$\therefore$ reading of $V_3=220$ $ V$
and reading of $A=2.2 $ $A$
