Question:

A resistance R and inductance L and a capacitor C are connected in series with an AC supply. The resistance of R is 16Ω, inductive reactance =24Ω and capacitive reactance =12Ω. If the current in the circuit is 5A, find the potential difference across R, L and C.

Show Hint

Voltages across R, L, C are calculated using their respective impedances.
