← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when an alternating current frequency nears resonant frequency of a series RLC circuit?
A)Maximum current amplitude through components✓
B)Minimum voltage drop across inductor element
C)Resistive impedance becomes highly capacitive
D)Phase angle increases between current and voltage
💡 Explanation
When AC frequency approaches resonance in an RLC circuit, impedance reduction results because inductive and capacitive reactances cancel each other out, maximizing current flow for a given voltage source. Therefore maximum current results, rather than minimized voltage drop, highly capacitive impedance, or increased phase angle, each requiring reactance imbalance.
