Question

What is the relationship between the voltage and current phasors in a pure resistor?

Options

• They rotate at different angular speeds.

• They represent the same peak value.

• They coincide on the phasor diagram.

• They differ in direction.

Answer 1

The voltage and current phasors coincide in direction for a pure resistor. This represents a zero \[0^\circ\] phase angle, not necessarily equal peak values.
