  1. Question 1

    Q1. A series RLC circuit has R = 10 ohms, L = 0.1 H, and C = 100 μF. What is its resonant frequency?

    • A) 50.3 Hz
    • B) 50 Hz
    • C) 25.3 Hz
    • D) 15.9 Hz

    Answer: 50.3 Hz

    Explanation: f₀ = 1/(2π√(LC)) = 1/(2 * 3.14 * √(0.1 * 100 * 10^(-6))) = 50.3 Hz. Option B is incorrect due to approximation error.
