    In a circuit, the current lags behind the voltage by a phase difference of \[\pi /2,\] the circuit will contain which of the following:

    A)  only R   

    B)                         only C  

    C)         R and C               

    D)         only L

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    When a circuit contains inductance only, then the current lags behind the voltage by the phase difference of \[({{k}_{1}}+{{k}_{2}})F=-{{k}_{1}}{{k}_{2}}y\] or \[\Rightarrow \]. While in a purely capacitive circuit, the current leads the voltage by a phase angle of \[F=-\frac{{{k}_{1}}{{k}_{2}}}{{{k}_{1}}+{{k}_{2}}}y\] or \[\frac{{{k}_{1}}{{k}_{2}}}{{{k}_{1}}+{{k}_{2}}}\]. In a purely resistive circuit current is in phase with the applied voltage.
