The source voltage is not in phase with the capacitor voltage as there are also resistances in the circuit. If nothing else, it is the internal resistance of the source. The source provides the current and the voltage across the capacitor lags behind that current.

you said that...
I think it is not correct to state that current leads the voltage by a phase of ∏/2.According to me,the answer to my question is that current lags voltage by a phase of 3∏/2.
current=I Cosωt=I sin(wt+∏/2)=I Sin(wt-3∏/2)...
I know that there will be no current in the absence of voltage...but if we put τ=0 in the expression of
current,we get a definite value but the voltage is zero.what does it physically imply (give physical interpretation)?
when an AC passes through a capacitor,if the expression for alternating voltage is V=E×Sinωτ,the expression for current is (I×sin(ωτ+∏/2)).This shows that current leads voltage by a phase ∏/2.Also at τ=0,we have voltage=0 but there is a finite value of current.In absence of voltage at T=0,where...
A BAR MAGNET has only two poles,north & south,just inside the ends .The ratio of magnetic length to geometrical length is always 0.85...why is not different for different BAR MAGNETS?
electrostatic induction...
when a conductor is charged by the method of induction,is its charge equal in magnitude to that of inducing charge or somewhat less?
