For \(R L C\) circuits in which the resistance isn't too high, the \(Q\) factor may be defined as the ratio of the resonant frequency to the difference between the two frequencies where the power dissipated in the circuit is half the power dissipated at resonance. Using suitable approximations, show that this definition leads to \(Q=\omega_{0} L / R,\) with \(\omega_{0}\) the resonant frequency.
Why does it make sense that inductive reactance increases with frequency?
An AC current is given by \(I=495 \sin (9.43 t),\) with \(I\) in \(\mathrm{mA}\) and \(t\) in ms. Find (a) the rms current and (b) the frequency in Hz.
A 2.0 - \(\mu\) F capacitor has 1.0 -k \(\Omega\) reactance. (a) What's the frequency of the applied voltage? (b) What inductance would give the same reactance at this frequency? (c) How would the reactances compare if the frequency were doubled?
An RLC circuit includes a \(1.5-\mathrm{H}\) inductor and a \(250-\mu \mathrm{F}\) capacitor rated at 400 V. The circuit is connected across a sine-wave generator with \(V_{\mathrm{p}}=32 \mathrm{V} .\) What minimum resistance will ensure that the capacitor voltage does not exceed its rated value when the circuit is at resonance?
