An RLC parallel circuit has an applied voltage of 240 volts. R= 60 ohms, XL = 20 ohms, and Xc =36 ohms. What is the capacitor current?

6.67A

Explanation:

The voltage across the capacitor formula is expressed as;

VL = IXL

VL is the voltage across the capacitor = 240volts (since it is a parallel connection, all the elements will have the same voltage)

I is the capacitor current

XL is the capacitive reactance = 36 ohms

Recall from the formula:

VL = IXL

I = VL/XL

I = 240/36

I = 6.67A

Hence the capacitor current is 6.67A

would be false hope this out
