Question

A series LCR circuit has \( L = 2.5 \, \text{H} \), \( C = 40 \, \mu\text{F} \). What is the resonant
angular frequency?

Explanation

**Current relative to voltage** in resistor in phase, φ=0°, power factor cos φ=1, maximum power, unlike inductor/capacitor where average power zero due to 90° phase shift, explaining why resistor heats while pure L/C does not. ω₀ = (1/√(L C)) . L = 2.5 H , C = 40 × 10⁻⁶ F . ω₀ = (1/√(2.5 × 40 × 10⁻⁶)) = (1/√(10⁻⁴)) = 100 rad/s . Applying X_L = ωL, X_C = 1/ωC, Z = √(R² + (X_L - X_C)²), I_rms = V_rms/Z, P = V_rms I_rms cosφ, V_s/V_p = N_s/N_p, calculation gives 100 rad/s, consistent with phasor analysis and resonance condition X_L = X_C.
