Question

A capacitor and resistor are connected with an AC source as shown in figure. Reactance of capacitor is $X_c=3\Omega$ and resistance of resistor is $R=4\Omega$ . The phase difference between $I$ and $I_1$ is degrees.

Answer 1

For parallel circuit
$\varphi =ta{n}^{-1}(\frac{R}{X_c})\varphi =ta{n}^{-1}(\frac{4}{3})={53}^{\circ }$
