MCQ Practice Question

At series resonance, the power factor of an ideal RLC circuit is?

  • AZero lagging
  • BZero leading
  • CUnity
  • DAlways 0.5
Report an error
Correct Answer: C. Unity
Explanation: At resonance the net reactance is zero, so voltage and current are in phase and power factor is unity.
