That would be equivalent to a leaky capacitor.

There is no time delay in a pure resistor. Its voltage drop is in-phase
with the current through it.

I don`t have a complete equivalent circuit in mind.

Right. The the sino soidal shape will go thru with its time varient
which is the condition applied by programmers for EVERY segment.
But that is only half the story for a TANK circuit. The capacitor
stores energy just like charging a battery, it will not NOT thru.
When the situation is right the capacitor/battery releases all its
energy like
connecting a terminal to ground or shorting it.This allows the energy
to flow in dc format at a rate decides by its time constant ot time
varient
required for radiation. This energy release is imposed on the leakage
current
thus forming a new time varient rquirede for radiation.
Thus at different segment points the time varient is not a reflection
of a sino soidal leakage current but the summation of that PLUS the
capacitor dicharge time constant. Look up a tank circuit and all will
become clear when you follow the phase changes of the voltage and the
current first in forward direction and then the reverse direction.
