A LCR circuit is at resonance for a capacitor C, inductance and resistance . Now the value of resistance is halved keeping all other parameters same. The current amplitude at resonance will be now:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
double
Option B (double) is correct because at resonance, the impedance is equal to the resistance, so halving the resistance doubles the current amplitude.

Assertion (A) : In series circuit, current and voltage are in same phase at resonance.
Reason (R) : In series circuit, resonant frequency does not depend on the value of resistance. Hence, current at resonance does not depend on resistance. A series circuit is connected to an voltage source. When is removed from the circuit, the phase difference between current and voltage is . If instead is removed from the circuit, the phase difference is again between current and voltage. The power factor of the circuit is A capacitor in an ideal LC circuit is fully charged by a DC source. Then it is disconnected from DC source, the current in the circuit
