A capacitor "C", an inductor "L" and a switch "S" are connected in series. When the switch is open, the plate to the left of the capacitor has charge "Qo". The switch is closed the load and current vary sinusoidally with time. Represent graphically the load "Qo" and the intensity of current "I" as a function of time "t", and explain why the current leads the load by a phase difference of 90°.
