  1. Question 1

    Q1. How does the time constant differ between RC and LR circuits?

    • A) RC uses resistance, LR uses inductance
    • B) Both use time constant = RC/RL
    • C) Time constant depends on frequency
    • D) Only LR circuits exhibit transient response

    Answer: RC uses resistance, LR uses inductance

    Explanation: RC and LR use different constants. Option B misstates the formula.
