Solution
The correct option is B Combination of inductance and capacitance at resonance Since the voltage across the resistive element is same as the voltage applied, the voltage drop across BC is zero. This is possible only when the ohmic value of the element connected across BC is zero. So, X should be combination of inductance and capacitance at resonance.
