  1. Question 1

    Q1. A light bulb is connected to a power source with a capacitance of 100 μF and an inductive reactance of 50 Ω. What is the resonant frequency of the circuit?

    • A) 100 Hz
    • B) 1 kHz
    • C) 10 kHz
    • D) 50 kHz

    Answer: 100 Hz

    Explanation: The resonant frequency is given by f = 1 / (2π√(LC)), where L = 1 / (2πf) = 50 μH and C = 100 μF.
