At resonance, the frequency of the supply power equals the natural frequency of the given LCR circuit.
Resistance, $\text{R}=20\Omega$
Inductance, L = 1.5H
Capacitance, $C = 35μF = 30 \times 10^{-6}F$
AC supply voltage to the LCR circuit, V = 200V
Impedance of the circuit is given by the relation,
$\text{Z}=\sqrt{\text{R}^2+\Big(\omega\text{L}-\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}\Big)^2}$
At resonance, $\omega\text{L}=\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}$
$\therefore\ \text{Z}=\text{R}=20\Omega$
Current in the circuit can be calculated as:
$\text{I}=\frac{\text{V}}{\text{Z}}$
$=\frac{200}{20}=10\text{A}$
Hence, the average power transfer-red to the circuit in one complete cycle= VI
= 200 × 10 = 2000W.
