Q
  1. In a parallel R, L, C circuit, the value of the capacitor is quadrupled, then the value
    of the impedance would
    (a) reduce
    (b) increased
    (c) remain the same
A

(a) reduce

Capacitors reduce impedance, inductors increase it

Remember: Xc = 1 / 2(pi)(F)(C) - As capacitance or frequency increases, capacitive reactance decreases
XL = 2(pi)(F)(L) - As frequency or inductance increase so does inductive reactance

Q
  1. In a tuned circuit at resonance, the circuit will be
    (a) inductive
    (b) resistive
    (c) capacitive
A

(b) resistive

Inductive and capacitive cancel each other out

Capacitors reduce impedance, inductors increase it

Remember: Xc = 1 / 2(pi)(F)(C) - As capacitance or frequency increases, capacitive reactance decreases
XL = 2(pi)(F)(L) - As frequency or inductance increase so does inductive reactance

  1. In a series LCR circuit at resonance, R = 100 ohms, L and C are each 10 ohms.
    The total impedance is
    (a) 100 ohms
    (b) 30 ohms
    (c) zero ohms
A

(a) 100 ohms

Inductive and capacitive cancel each other out

Capacitors reduce impedance, inductors increase it
