Question:medium

A resistor of resistance R, capacitor of capacitance C and inductor of inductance L are connected in parallel to an AC power source of voltage varepsilon₀sinω t. The maximum current through the resistance is half of the maximum current through the power source. Then value of R is:

Show Hint

In parallel AC circuits: I=√(IR²+(IC-IL)²) Always compare vector currents, not algebraic sums.

  • \(\sqrt{3}\left|\omega C-\dfrac{1}{\omega L}\right|\)
  • \(\sqrt{3}\left|\dfrac{1}{\omega C}-\omega L\right|\)
  • \(\sqrt{5}\left|\dfrac{1}{\omega C}-\omega L\right|\)
  • None of these
