    A circuit element XX when connected to an a.c. supply of peak voltage 100 V100\text{ }V gives a peak current of 5 A5\text{ }A which is in phase with the voltage. A second element YY when connected to the same a.c. supply also gives the same value of peak current which lags behind the voltage by π2\frac{\pi}{2}. If XX and YY are connected in series to the same supply, what will be the rms value of the current in ampere?
