Answer:

D) VL(t) leads IL(t) and VC(t) lags IC(t)

Explanation:

This is because The phase angle between voltage and current for inductors and capacitors is 90 degrees, or radians, also, this means that no power is dissipated in either the inductor or the capacitor, since the time average of current times voltage,

( I(t), V(t)), is zero.
