Default 180 degrees out of phase

If you built a circuit with a big inductor and a big capacitor in series,
such that the resonant frequency was 50Hz, then connected it to the mains,
would you get current flowing 180 degrees out of phase with the voltage,
and run the meter backwards?


Dont! - he's stupid enough to do it.
