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 :
Select the correct option:
A
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
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
For resonance, $\phi=0$, hence both inductor \& capacitor must be present. Also power factor is zero for pure inductor or pure capacitor hence both the component consume zero average power.
