A resistor with resistance R and a capacitor with capacitance C are connected in

Question

A resistor with resistance R and a capacitor with capacitance C are connected in series to an AC voltage source. The time-dependent voltage across the capacitor is given by VC(t)=VC0sin?t.

What is the amplitude VR of the voltage across the resistor? Express your answer in terms of VC0, C, ?, and R.
VR=?

VR=?

Explanation / Answer

VR=Applied Voltage/Resistance(ohm's law)

=VC0sin?t/R

P.S= both the voltage applied and voltage across it is in the same phase across a resistor.so that is why we simply divide by the resistance value usin ohm's law.
