Topic: Network Theory

A series RLC circuit resonates at 1000 kHz. At frequency of 995 kHz, the circuit impedance is

  • A. Resistive
  • B. Minimum
  • C. Inductive
  • D. Capacitive

Answer: D. Capacitive

Explanation: In a series RLC circuit, below the resonant frequency (f < f_0), capacitive reactance (1/wC) is greater than inductive reactance (wL). Thus, the overall impedance is capacitive.
