Practice question

**Current relative to voltage** in resistor in phase, φ=0°, power factor cos φ=1, maximum power, unlike inductor/capacitor where average power zero due to 90° phase shift, explaining why resistor heats while pure L/C does not. In a purely resistive AC circuit, the current and voltage oscillate in phase, meaning they reach their peak, zero, and minimum values simultaneously. This occurs because a resistor does not introduce any phase shift between voltage and current. Applying X_L = ωL, X_C = 1/ωC, Z = √(R² + (X_L - X_C)²), I_rms = V_rms/Z, P = V_rms I_rms cosφ, V_s/V_p = N_s/N_p, calculation gives It is in phase with
