Question 29 POST_UTME_OSUSTECH • 2019 • PHYSICS • objective

A circuit consists of a resistor $R$, an inductor $L$, and a capacitor $C$ connected in series. The impedance of the circuit is given by \( \sqrt{R^2 + \( X_L - X_C \ \)^2}). What is the phase angle of the circuit?

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. \arc\tan \left\( \frac{X_L - X_C}{R} \right \)
B. \arc\tan \left\( \frac{R}{X_L - X_C} \right \)
C. \arc\tan \left\( \frac{X_L + X_C}{R} \right \)
D. \arc\tan \left\( \frac{R}{X_L + X_C} \right \)
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
\arc\tan \left\( \frac{X_L - X_C}{R} \right \)
