A series circuit has equal values for resistance, capacitive reactance, and inductive reactance. The phase angle for this circuit is:
A) 180°.
B) -60°.
C) 60°.
D) not given.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a series circuit with equal resistance, capacitive reactance, and inductive reactance, the phase angle is 0° because the inductive and capacitive reactances cancel each other out, leaving only the resistive component.
