$A$ sinusoidal $AC$ current passes through a resistor of resistance $R$ in an $LCR$ series circuit. If the phase difference between the supplied voltage and the supplied current is $\theta$ and the peak value of the supplied current is $I_0$,then the power dissipated in the circuit is:

  • A
    $I_0^2 R \cos \theta$
  • B
    $\frac{I_0^2 R}{2}$
  • C
    $I_0^2 R$
  • D
    $\frac{I_0^2 R}{2} \cos \theta$
