Hey there,
I've been learning about AC circuits recently and while considering and LCR circuit it occurred to me; it's possible for the voltage drop across a capacitor/inductor/both to be greater than the voltage source itself however I can't think of the reason for this, any hints or reasons would be greatly appreciated.
The only idea I can think of is that since energy is stored in both of them the potential difference across them increases, but I don't think that's right
