The simple answer is no. The impedance of an R-Lcircuit is the vector sum of the circuit's resistance and its inductive reactance. Resistance is determined by the length, cross-sectional area, and resistivity of the conductor (although its 'a.c. resistance' is proportional to the frequency squared), whereas the inductive reactance is directly proportional to the frequency of the supply.

What happens to the total impedance of a series RC ciRCuit as the frequency is increased?

when the frequency is increased the total impedance of a series RC circuit is decrease.


Does resonant frequency of RLC series circuit depends on Resistance?

No, the resonant frequency of a RLC series circuit is only dependant on L and C. R will be the impedance of the circuit at resonance.


Does the impedance of a parallel RLC circuit equal to the value of the resistor?

No. You have to consider the inductor and the capacitor. Impedance of RLC circuit is equal to to the Value of Resistor Only AND Only on Resonate frequency. otherwise u have to cnsider resistance inductance and capacitance together in series.


What is impedance diagram?

An impedance diagram (sometimes called an impedance triangle) results when a series circuit's voltage phasor diagram is divided throughout by its reference phase (current) -this results in resistance (=VR/I), inductive reactance (=VL/I), capacitive reactance (=VC/I) and impedance (=V/I) andillustrates the Pythagorean relationship between the circuit's impedance, reactance, and resistance.


How does series resonance differ from parallal resonance?

In series resonance, the inductance and the capacitance are connected in series, but in parallel resonance they are connected in parallel. In series resonance, at an input signal with a frequency equal to resonance frequency, the total impedance of both inductive and capacitive elements together is zero (or they appear as short circuits) unlike the parallel resonance case in which it is infinite and they appear as an open circuit.

Will the impedance in a series RL circuit increase as the frequency decreases?

When the frequency of Parallel RL Circuit Increases,XL increases which causes IL (current through inductor) decreases. Decrease in IL causes It (It=Il+Ir) to decrease,which means by relation IT=Vs/Zt ,the Zt (Total Impedance) Increases.


What is Impedance for an RLC circuit in series?

1. The RLC series circuit is a very important example of a resonant circuit. It has a minimum of impedance Z=R at the resonant frequency, and the phase angle is equal to zero at resonance.AnswerThe impedance of an RLC circuit is the vector sum of the circuit's resistance, inductive reactance, and capacitive reactance -all of which are expressed in ohms. This applies whether the circuit is at resonance or not.


What does a resonators do in a electric circuit?

A resonator is a circuit that responds to a narrow range of frequencies. A typical resonator is a tuned circuit containing an inductor and a capacitor in series or parallel. A series connected tuned circuit has zero impedance at the resonant frequency, while a parallel tuned circuit has infinite impedance at the resonant frequency. The resonant frequency in both cases depends on the inductance times the capacitance: F = 1 / (2.pi.sqrt(LC)) If the inductance is in Henrys and the capacitance in Farads, the answer is in Hz.

Series resonance circuit is also known as acceptor circuit why?

Because the series resonant circuit has the lowest possible impedance at resonance frequency, thus allowing the AC current to circulate through it. At resonance frequency, XC=XL and XL-XC = 0. Therefore, the only electrical characteristic left in the circuit to oppose current is the internal resistance of the two components. Hence, at resonance frequency, Z = R. Note: This effect is probably better seen with vectors. Clarification: Resonant circuits come in two flavors, series and parallel. Series resonant circuits do have an impedance equal to zero at the resonant frequency. This characteristic makes series resonant circuits especially well suited to be used as basic pass-band filters (acceptors). However, parallel circuits present their maximum impedance at the resonant frequency, which makes them ideal for tuning purposes.


How can you find the steady state current in RLC series circuit?

-- If the excitation source is AC, then the steady state of the circuit depends on the voltage, frequency, and waveform (harmonic content) of the source. -- If the excitation source is DC, then the steady state current in a series circuit is zero. DC doesn't pass through a capacitor.


Why the current increases upto resenance frequency and decreases there after in a series LCR circuit?

At resonance, the L and C impedance cancels out, so the current can be calculated based on the resistance and applied voltage. Imagine increasing frequency of the supply from 0 Hz to very high. At low frequency, the impedance of the inductor is ~0 (defined as Zl = w*L*j), and the impedance of the capacitor is very large (defined as Zc = 1 / (w*C*j)). As you increase the frequency, the impedance of the capacitor will decrease, as the impedance of the inductor increases. At some point (the resonant frequency), these two will be equal, with opposite signs. After crossing the resonant frequency, the inductor impedance will continue growing larger than the capacitor impedance until the total impedance approaches infinite.


Resonance in an L-C-R AC Series circuit experiment?

In an L-C-R AC series circuit, resonance occurs when the capacitive and inductive reactances cancel each other out, resulting in minimum impedance. This causes the current in the circuit to be at its maximum and the power factor to be unity. By measuring the frequency at which resonance occurs, one can determine the values of the inductor, capacitor, and resistor in the circuit.

What is the use of series and parallel resonance?

Series resonant circuits have their lowest impedance at the resonant frequency. Parallel resonant circuits have their highest impedance at the resonant frequency. This characteristic is exploited in the design of filters, oscillators and other circuits.
