In an $LCR$ series circuit,if $V$ is the effective value of the applied voltage,$V_R$ is the voltage across $R$,and $V_L$ and $V_C$ are the effective voltages across $L$ and $C$ respectively,then:

  • A
    $V=V_{R}+V_{L}+V_{C}$
  • B
    $V^2=V_{R}^2+V_{L}^2+V_{C}^2$
  • C
    $V^2=V_{R}^2+\left(V_{L}-V_{C}\right)^2$
  • D
    $V^2=V_{L}^2+\left(V_{R}-V_{C}\right)^2$
