The correct answer is:
$220 \mathrm{~V}, 2.2 \mathrm{~A}$
$220 \mathrm{~V}, 2.2 \mathrm{~A}$
In case of series RLC circuit, Equation of voltage is given by
$$
\mathrm{V}^2=V_R^2+\left(V_L-V_C^2\right)
$$
Here, $V=220 V ; V_L=V_C=300 \mathrm{~V}$
$$
\therefore V_R=\sqrt{V^2}=220 \mathrm{~V}
$$
Current $i=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{220}{100}=2.2 \mathrm{~A}$
$$
\mathrm{V}^2=V_R^2+\left(V_L-V_C^2\right)
$$
Here, $V=220 V ; V_L=V_C=300 \mathrm{~V}$
$$
\therefore V_R=\sqrt{V^2}=220 \mathrm{~V}
$$
Current $i=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{220}{100}=2.2 \mathrm{~A}$
