Assertion $\quad:$ In series $L C R$ circuit resonance can take place.
Reason : Resonance takes place if inductance and capacitive reactances are equal and opposite.

Assertion : A capacitor of suitable capacitance can be used in an ac circuit in place of the choke coil.
Reason : A capacitor blocks dc and allows ac only.
View full solution
Assertion : An inductance and a resistance are connected in series with an ac circuit. In this circuit the current and the potential difference across the resistance lag behind potential difference across the inductance by an angle $\pi / 2$.
Reason : In $L R$ circuit voltage leads the current by phase angle which depends on the value of inductance and resistance both.
