Q7.11(c) Figure shows a series LCR circuit connected to a variable frequency source. Determine the rms potential drops across the three elements of the circuit. Show that the potential drop across the LC combination is zero at the resonating frequency.
Given: Variable frequency supply voltage
Inductance
Capacitance
Resistance
Now, According to the series RLC circuit, the rms potential drop across the inductor is given by
Now, Potential drop across the capacitor,
Potential drop across the inductor,
The potential drop across the Resistor,
The potential drop across LC combination
Hence, it is proved that the potential drop across the LC combination is zero at resonating frequency.
