MCQ
Given below are two statements:

Statement $I$: An $AC$ circuit undergoes electrical resonance if it contains either a capacitor or an inductor.

Statement $II$: An $AC$ circuit containing a pure capacitor or a pure inductor consumes high power due to its non-zero power factor.

In the light of above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

  • Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false
  • B
    Statement $I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false
  • C
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true
  • D
    Statement I is false but Statement $II$ is true

Answer

Correct option: A.
Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false
a
For resonance, $\phi=0$, hence both inductor and capacitor must be present. Also power factor is zero for pure inductor or pure capacitor hence both the component consume zero average power.
