In a series $LCR$ circuit, the alternating e.m.f. and current are given by the equations $V = V_0 \sin(\omega t)$ and $I = I_0 \sin(\omega t + \frac{\pi}{3})$ respectively. The average power dissipated in the circuit over one cycle of a.c. is $(\cos 60^{\circ} = 0.5)$.

  • A
    zero
  • B
    $\frac{V_0 I_0}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} V_0 I_0$
  • D
    $\frac{V_0 I_0}{4}$
