Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false.

Vedclass · Answer

(A) Statement $I$ is false because electrical resonance in an $AC$ circuit requires the presence of both an inductor $(L)$ and a capacitor $(C)$ so that the inductive reactance $(X_L = \omega L)$ and capacitive reactance $(X_C = 1/\omega C)$ can cancel each other out,resulting in a phase angle $\phi = 0$.Statement $II$ is false because for a pure inductor or a pure capacitor,the phase difference between voltage and current is $\pi/2$. The power factor is $\cos(\pi/2) = 0$. Therefore,the average power consumed by a pure inductor or a pure capacitor is $P = V_{rms} I_{rms} \cos(\phi) = 0$. They do not consume high power; they consume zero power.Since both statements are incorrect,the correct option is $A$.
