When an LC tank is excited at the resonant frequency, the energy across each will be equal (but not necessary equal at a given moment in time). If excited at a frequency other than the resonant frequency, the impedance of the inductor (wjL) and capacitor (1/wjC) will not be equal, therefore energy across each will be different.
Firstly the suffix '-ance' in each of those three words indicate the properties the material exhibits. Therefore resistance is the property by which any material tends to oppose the flow of current through it. Inductance is the property by which a material opposes the change in current, or opposes an alternating current. An inductor can be appreciated simply using a coil of insulated wire, or a solenoid. Capacitance is the property by which a material opposes the change in voltage across its ends, ie how it opposes alternating voltage. A capacitor comprises of, essentially, two metallic plates separated by a dielectric (a medium which may/may not be non-conducting, but is capable to contain charge). cheers!!
The initial condition of a capacitor that has no energy stored is zero volts. The initial condition of an inductor that has no energy stored is zero amperes.
You use a capacitor to store electrostatic energy. You use an inductor to store electromagnetic energy. You use a resistor to dissipate electrical energy.
The purpose of an inductor is to store and release energy in the circuit usually in order to induce a phase shift in the voltage or current passing through it. Inductor stores energy in the magnetic field.
The reason why resistor voltage decreases while a capacitor discharges is because the resistor acts like a source of electrical energy. As the capacitor discharges, it draws energy from the resistor, which causes the voltage across the resistor to decrease. This is because the capacitor is acting like a drain, and is taking energy out of the resistor, thus causing the voltage across the resistor to decrease. The resistor and capacitor work together in order to create a discharge circuit. This is done by connecting the capacitor to the resistor, and then to a voltage source. The voltage source supplies the energy to the resistor, and then the resistor transfers this energy to the capacitor. As the capacitor discharges, it takes energy from the resistor, which causes the voltage across the resistor to decrease. In order to understand this process better, it is important to understand the basics of Ohm's Law. Ohm's Law states that the voltage across a resistor is equal to the current through the resistor multiplied by the resistance. As the capacitor discharges, it takes energy from the resistor, which means that the current through the resistor decreases, and therefore the voltage across the resistor will also decrease.
A tank circuit is typically a combination of 'capacitive' and 'inductive' circuits that exchange 'energy' back and forth. An inductor stores energy as a magnetic field, wheras a capacitor stores energy as a charge across plates. Ideally, the exchange between them would go on forever (back and forth like a game of hot potato) however, a slight replenishing signal is needed practically. By selecting the proper values of components, the rate, or frequency, of exchange can be determined.
RLC is a type of electrical circuit that involves a resistor, an inductor and a capacitor. The throughput is the amount of energy travelling through the circuit.

Yes. That's exactly the situation in the magnetic field of an inductor (coil),or in the dielectric of a capacitor. Both of those circuit elements are energy-storage devices.
Some electrical machines work on the principle of electromagnetic induction. For such events to occur, we need inductor due to which reactive power flows in the circuit. Since, this power is due to the energy storing elements in the circuit like inductor and capacitor. That is why, we need reactive power in a electric circuit.

If a charged capacitor is connected across an inductor, charge will start to flow through the inductor, building up a magnetic field around it, and reducing the voltage on the capacitor. Eventually all the charge on the capacitor will be gone and the voltage across it will reach zero. However, the current will continue, because inductors resist changes in current, and energy to keep it flowing is extracted from the magnetic field, which will begin to decline. The current will begin to charge the capacitor with a voltage of opposite polarity to its original charge. When the magnetic field is completely dissipated the current will stop and the charge will again be stored in the capacitor, with the opposite polarity as before. Then the cycle will begin again, with the current flowing in the opposite direction through the inductor.The charge flows back and forth between the plates of the capacitor, through the inductor. The energy oscillates back and forth between the capacitor and the inductor until (if not replenished by power from an external circuit) internal resistance makes the oscillations die out. Its action, known mathematically as a harmonic oscillator, is similar to a pendulum swinging back and forth, or water sloshing back and forth in a tank. For this reason the circuit is also called a tank circuit. The oscillation frequency is determined by the capacitance and inductance values used. In typical tuned circuits in electronic equipment the oscillations are very fast, thousands to millions of times per second.
both of these components connected in parallel will cause an oscillation of energy, meaning the capacitor will charge and then discharge through the inductor , which will then build up a magnetic field and discharge through the cap again , and this oscillation will go on for quite some time and then finally die out , and also if a multimeter is place across the cap it should short out , because it's as if you have connected a piece of wire right across it ...
