I appreciate @Ali's answer but small correction in formula the Ix and Ic should not be individually squared and their difference should be squared inside the formula.

You can't add directly the current because there is a phase differences.
We can considered the admittance.
Y= 1/R+j(WC-1/WL).
WC=1/Xc=188.4*10^-6 ohm.
1/WL=1/Xl=53.07*10^-6.
1/R=250*10^-6.
WC-1/WL=135.33*10^-6.
So total admittance,
Y=284.278*10^-6.
So,
I = V*Y = 497*284.278*10^-6 = 141.286 mA.

Ali is correct because we can't forget vector quantities. So answer is 141ma.

Thanks all. Specially Vasu n Ali.

Vasu is correct till caculating Ir,Ic,Il
how we forget vector quantities
I=(Ir^2+(Il^2-Ic^2))^1/2
I=141mA
how we forget vector quantities
I=(Ir^2+(Il^2-Ic^2))^1/2
I=141mA

What lakshmi said is correct absolutely. The formula is I=Ir+Ic+Il
where in Ir=v/r
Ic=V/Xc and Il=V/Xl;
wherein Xc=1/(wc) and Xl=wl.
so we get Ir=0.12425,Ic=0.0936,Il=0.0263
So by totalling we get Itotal= 244 mA
where in Ir=v/r
Ic=V/Xc and Il=V/Xl;
wherein Xc=1/(wc) and Xl=wl.
so we get Ir=0.12425,Ic=0.0936,Il=0.0263
So by totalling we get Itotal= 244 mA

The answer in 244m. Because we need to add currents in each branch since its a parallel circuit! hope its noted:).

Is wrong because the RLC circuits is a parallel circuits and the total impendance is not in this form.

When I calculate xl=18840 ohm, xc= 5308 xl-xc=13532 ohm
z =3836 and 497/3836 =129 ma.
please confirm where this would be wrong
best regards
thanks in advance
