The resistor voltage in an RL circuit is always out of phase with the current.

                Actually the current will be out of phase with respect to voltage not voltage out of phase wrt current.
I'm not confident but thinking so.

                In RL Circuit, the resistor voltage is not in phase with the current. In this current lags the voltage.
So, I think the answer is wrong.

                Lagging of voltage is due to capacitive load, leading of voltage is due to inductive load. There is no phase shift due to resistive load.

                In a series RL circuit voltage across resistance is in phase with current but voltage across is out of phase (V leads I by 90 degrees).

                In any case across the resistance voltage and currunt are in phas. Leading and lagging term related to capictor and inducter.

                The question is given as "resistor voltage" is out of phase not the voltage of total.

                When RL circuit are in parallel then voltage across is not out of phase.

                As it is RL circuilt so current lagging by voltage 90 degree.

                I am unable to understand this. Please explain clearly.

                It is true only..tan@=x/r, for x nt =0
