Which one of the following statements best applies to a parallel RLC circuit? A. The voltage waveform for each component always has the same amplitude and phase as the applied voltage B. The sum of the current is always less than the applied current C. The current waveform for each component always has the same amplitude and phase as the applied current D. All of the above E. None of the above

The correct answer is: E. None of the above

In a parallel RLC circuit, the voltage across each component is the same, but the current through each component is different. The current waveform for each component is also different, and the phase of the current through each component is different from the phase of the applied voltage.

The voltage waveform for each component always has the same amplitude and phase as the applied voltage. This is because the voltage across each component is equal to the applied voltage.

The sum of the current is always less than the applied current. This is because the current through each component is different, and the currents add together in a parallel circuit.

The current waveform for each component always has the same amplitude and phase as the applied current. This is not true, because the current through each component is different, and the currents add together in a parallel circuit.

All of the above. This is not true, because the voltage waveform for each component always has the same amplitude and phase as the applied voltage, but the current waveform for each component is different, and the phase of the current through each component is different from the phase of the applied voltage.
