Question

In the given circuit the R.M.S. values of voltages across the capacitor C , inductor L and resistor R 1 are 12 V , 10 V and 5 V respectively. Then the peak voltage across R 2 is, 7 2 V, 69 V, 138 V, none of these

In a parallel combination, each branch should have equal potential. But in AC circuit, in a branch, V eff = V R 2 + ( V c - V L ) 2 V C 2 + V R 1 2 = V L 2 + V R 2 2 ⇒ 12 2 + 5 2 = 10 2 + V R 2 2 ⇒ ( V R 2 ) rms = 69 V peak = 2 V rms ∴ V R 2 peak = 138 V
