  1. Question 1

    Q1. What is the resonant frequency of a series RLC circuit with L = 0.1 H and C = 10 μF?

    • A) 50 Hz
    • B) 100 Hz
    • C) 159 Hz
    • D) 318 Hz

    Answer: 159 Hz

    Explanation: f_res = 1 / (2π sqrt(LC)) = 1 / (2π sqrt(0.1 H * 10e-6 F)) = 159 Hz. Option A is incorrect because it is not the calculated resonant frequency.
