CHAPTER 14

imageResonance

In this chapter the property of resonance will be introduced. Its effects on the impedance, currents, and voltages of a circuit will be examined. The response of RLC circuits to frequencies near resonance and the concept of the frequency response of a circuit will be investigated. The Q, or quality factor of a circuit, and its interaction with frequency response will be discussed.

At the end of this chapter you should be able to:

1. State the basic definition of resonance.

2. Determine the resonant frequency of a circuit with a capacitor and inductor in parallel or series with one another.

3. Determine the value of the inductance ...
