When current rises and falls at the same rate as the voltage and reverses the direction of flow when the voltage reverses polarity, the current is said to be _____ with the voltage.

A) in phase
B) out of phase
C) in leading phase
D) in lagging phase

In Phase

A condition that occurs when voltage and current reach all peak values at the same time.

Out of Phase

A condition where two waveforms of the same frequency are not aligned in time, resulting in a phase difference.

Leading Phase

A condition in an AC circuit where the voltage wave is ahead of the current wave in time, indicating capacitive properties.
