Problem

A series circuit contains a resistor R=50 ΩR = 50\,\Omega, an inductor with L=0.20 HL = 0.20\,\text{H} and a capacitor with C=50 μFC = 50\,\mu\text{F}. It is connected to an AC source of frequency 50 Hz50\,\text{Hz}. Calculate the phase angle ϕ\phi and state whether the current leads or lags the voltage.
