A parallel AC. circuit in resonance will__________?
Correct answer: B. have a high impedance
- A. have a high voltage developed across each inductive and capacitive section
- B. have a high impedance
- C. act like a resistor of low value
- D. have current in each section equal to the line current
Explanation
At parallel resonance, inductive and capacitive branch currents largely cancel at the supply, so the circuit presents a high impedance. Large circulating currents may still flow within the individual branches.
