Q7.12 (e) An circuit contains a inductor and a capacitor with an initial charge of . The resistance of the circuit is negligible. Let the instant the circuit is closed be .
If a resistor is inserted in the circuit, how much energy is eventually dissipated as heat?
If the resistance is added to the circuit, the whole energy will dissipate as heat eventually. energy will keep moving between the capacitor and inductor with reducing in magnitude in each cycle and eventually all energy will be dissipated.
