    What is the value of inductance I for which the current is a maximum in a series LCR circuit with \[C=10\,\mu F\] and to \[\omega =1000\,{{s}^{-1}}\]?                                                                                       [AIPMT (S) 2007]

    A)  100 mH

    B)                   1 mH

    C)  Cannot be calculated unless R is known

    D)       10 mH

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Key Idea: In resonance condition, maximum current flows in the circuit. Current in LCR series circuit.
                            \[i=\frac{V}{\sqrt{{{R}^{2}}+{{({{X}_{L}}-{{X}_{C}})}^{2}}}}\]
                where V is rms value of current, R is resistance, \[{{X}_{L}}\] is inductive reactance and \[{{X}_{C}}\] is capacitive reactance.
                For current to be maximum, denominator should be minimum which can be done, if \[{{X}_{L}}={{X}_{C}}\]
                This happens in resonance state of the circuit i,e.,
                            \[\omega L=\frac{1}{\omega C}\]
    or         \[L=\frac{1}{{{\omega }^{2}}C}\]                               …(i)
    Given,   \[\omega =1000\,{{s}^{-1}},\,C=10\,\mu F=10\times {{10}^{-6}}\,F\]
    Hence, \[L=\frac{1}{{{(1000)}^{2}}\times 10\times {{10}^{-6}}}\]
                \[=0.1\text{ }H\]
                \[=100\text{ }mH\]
