  1. Question 1

    Q1. A 100 ohm resistor and 100 ohm capacitor are connected in series. What is the impedance?

    • A) 100 ohm
    • B) 141 ohm
    • C) 173 ohm
    • D) 200 ohm

    Answer: 141 ohm

    Explanation: The correct answer is B because the impedance of the circuit is determined by the square root of the sum of the squares of resistance and capacitance.
