The correct answer is:
$2 A$
$\begin{aligned} & R=6+4=10 \Omega \\ & X_L=\omega L=2000 \times 5 \times 10^{-3}=10 \Omega \\ & X_C=\frac{1}{\omega C}=\frac{1}{2000 \times 50 \times 10^{-6}}=10 \Omega \\ & \therefore Z=\sqrt{R^2+\left(X_L-X_C\right)^2}=10 \Omega \\ & \text { Amplitude of current }=i_0=\frac{V_0}{Z}=\frac{20}{10}=2 \mathrm{~A}\end{aligned}$
