The correct answer is:
\( 100 \mathrm{~V} \)
Given, voltage drop across \( \mathrm{L}, V_{L}=40 \mathrm{~V} ; \) voltage dropacross \( \mathrm{C}, V_{c}=120 \mathrm{~V} ; \) voltage drop across \( R, V_{R}=60 \mathrm{~V} \)
Then source voltage \( =\sqrt{{V_{R}}^{2}+\left(V_{L}-V_{C}\right)^{2}} \)
\( =\sqrt{60^{2}+(120-40)^{2}} \)
\( =\sqrt{3600+6400} \)
\( =\sqrt{10000} \)
\( =100 \mathrm{~V} \)
Therefore, source voltage \( =100 \mathrm{~V} \)
Then source voltage \( =\sqrt{{V_{R}}^{2}+\left(V_{L}-V_{C}\right)^{2}} \)
\( =\sqrt{60^{2}+(120-40)^{2}} \)
\( =\sqrt{3600+6400} \)
\( =\sqrt{10000} \)
\( =100 \mathrm{~V} \)
Therefore, source voltage \( =100 \mathrm{~V} \)
