  1. Question 1

    Q1. A circuit contains a series combination of a resistor and a capacitor. What is the equivalent impedance of the circuit?

    • A) R + Xc
    • B) R - Xc
    • C) R / Xc
    • D) Xc / R

    Answer: R + Xc

    Explanation: The equivalent impedance of a series combination of R and Xc is given by Z = R + Xc.
