उत्तर

The phasor diagram for the series LCR circuit is

The phasor relation for the voltages is
VL + VR + VC = V

Because VC and VL are always along the same line and in opposite directions, they can be combined into a single phasor (VC + VL) which has a magnitude |vCm - vLm|.

Because V is represented as the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose sides are VR and (VC + VL), the Pythagorean theorem gives

`v_m^2=v_(Rm)^2+(V_(Cm)-V_(Lm))^2`

`:.v_m^2=(i_mR)^2+(i_mX_c-i_mX_L)^2`

`:.v_m^2=i_m^2[R^2+(X_C-X_L)^2]`

`:.i_m=v_m/sqrt(R^2+(X_C-X_L)^2)`

This is the expression for the current in the circuit.

The instantaneous power in the circuit is

P = vi = (vmsinωt)(imsin(ωt+Φ))

`:. P=(v_mi_m)/2(sinomegat)(sin(omegat+phi))`

`:.P=(v_mi_m)/2(cosphi-cos(2omegat+phi))`

The average power over a cycle is given by the average of the two terms in the RHS of the above equation.
It is only the second term (cos(2ωt+)) which is time-dependent. Its average is zero. Therefore, we get

`P=(v_mi_m)/2cosphi=v_m/sqrt2xxi_m/sqrt2cosphi`

∴ P = VI cosΦ

It can also be written as  P = I2ZcosΦ

At resonance XC − XL = 0 and Φ = 0. Therefore, cosΦ = 1 and power is P=I2Z=I2R.

That is, maximum power is dissipated in a circuit at resonance.
