Practice mode Alternating Current

In a series RLC circuit, what is the phase difference between the voltage across the inductor and the voltage across the capacitor?

Correct answer A. 180°

Explanation

The same current flows through both. The inductor voltage leads this current by 90° while the capacitor voltage lags it by 90°, so the two voltages are 180° apart.
