A series combination of an inductor of self-inductance L, capacitor of capacitance C and resistor R is connected to an alternating voltage source of `V=V_0sinomegat`. The current through the circuit is `I=I_0sin(omegat-theta)`,where `I_0=V_0/(sqrt(R^2+(omega-1/(omegaC))^2))`and`theta=tan^-1 ""1/R(omegaL-1/(omegaC))`.
Now that, the frequency of both voltage and current is `f=omega/(2pi)` . The rms value of these parameters during one complete cycles are `V_(rms)=V_0/sqrt2`and`I_(rms)=I_0/sqrt2` respectively. These values are shown in alternating voltmeter and ammeter.
The power consumed by the circuit P=VI. The mean value i.e., the effective power of the circuit in a complete cycle is `overlineP=V_(rms)I_(rms)costheta`. This `costheta` is termed the power factor.
In the circuit in question (i) the inductor is replaced by a pure capacitor, the phase difference between the current and terminal voltage of the capacitor is
A. `-90^@`
B. between `-90^@` and zero
C. zero
D. `+90^@`
