(a) Calculate the maximum potential difference across each of the three circuit elements in Example 32.10.

(b) Is the sum of the amplitudes \(V_{R}, V_{L}\), and \(V_{C}\) equal to the amplitude of the source emf? Why or why not?

Data from Example 32.10

Consider an RLC circuit, such as the one shown in Figure 32.58. The source emf has amplitude \(160 \mathrm{~V}\) and frequency \(60 \mathrm{~Hz}\). The resistance is \(R=50 \Omega\) and the inductance is \(L=0.26 \mathrm{H}\). If the amplitudes of the potential difference across the capacitor and the inductor are equal, what is the current in the circuit?
