    In an L-C-R series AC circuit the voltage across L, C and R is 10 V each. If the inductor is short circuited, the voltage across the capacitor would become on

    A)  \[10\,V\]                            

    B)         \[\frac{20}{\sqrt{2}}\,V\]

    C)  \[20\sqrt{2}\,V\]         

    D)         \[\frac{10}{\sqrt{2}}\,V\]

    E)  \[20\,V\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Circuit is resonant, hence supply voltage equals to\[{{V}_{R}}\]. \[{{V}_{R}}=10\]volt Also,         \[{{X}_{C}}=R\] As the voltage drops are equals across L, C and R then when L is short \[Z=\sqrt{{{R}^{2}}+X_{C}^{2}}\] \[=\sqrt{2}R\] \[{{V}_{C}}=i{{X}_{C}}\]                 \[\left[ \because i=\frac{V}{Z} \right]\] Or           \[{{V}_{C}}=\frac{V}{Z}{{X}_{C}}\] Or           \[=\frac{10}{\sqrt{2}R}R\] Or           \[{{V}_{C}}=\frac{10}{\sqrt{2}}volt\]
