Question

In a series RLC circuit, R indicates:

• A. Current in the circuit
• B. Inductance of the inductor
• C. Capacitance of the capacitor
• D. Resistance of the resistor

Hint:

The resistor ($R$) is the only component in an RLC circuit that dissipates active power as heat ($P = I^2R$). The inductor ($L$) and capacitor ($C$) only store and release reactive energy in magnetic and electric fields.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D
