Answer

$C). 8.06A$

Work Step by Step

We can find the required rms current as follows: $X_c=\frac{1}{2\pi fC}$ $X_c=\frac{1}{2\pi(90\times 10^6)(1.50\times 10^{-12})}$ $X_c=1178.92\Omega$ and $X_L=2\pi fL=2\pi(90\times 10^6)(2.08\times 10^{-6})$ $X_L=1176.212\Omega$ $Z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_c)^2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $Z=\sqrt{()^2+(1176.212-1178.92)^2}$ $Z=3.10\Omega$ Now $I_{rms}=\frac{V_{rms}}{Z}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $I_{rms}=\frac{25}{3.10}$ $I_{rms}=8.06A$
