What is the formula of RLC series circuit?

i(t) = Imax sin(ωt) The instantaneous voltage across a pure resistor, VR is “in-phase” with current. The instantaneous voltage across a pure inductor, VL “leads” the current by 90. The instantaneous voltage across a pure capacitor, VC “lags” the current by 90.

What is series and parallel RLC circuit?

In series RLC circuit, the current flowing through all the three components i.e the resistor, inductor and capacitor remains the same, but in parallel circuit, the voltage across each element remains the same and the current gets divided in each component depending upon the impedance of each component.

How does a series RLC circuit work?

When a resistor, inductor and capacitor are connected in series with the voltage supply, the circuit so formed is called series RLC circuit. Since all these components are connected in series, the current in each element remains the same, Let VR be the voltage across resistor, R. VL be the voltage across inductor, L.

What is a series resonant circuit?

Series resonance is a resonance condition that usually occurs in series circuits, where the current becomes a maximum for a particular voltage. In series resonance, the current is maximum at resonant frequency. The series resonance current curve increases to a maximum at resonance then decreases as resonance is passed.

What is parallel RLC circuit?

In parallel RLC Circuit the resistor, inductor and capacitor are connected in parallel across a voltage supply. The parallel RLC circuit is exactly opposite to the series RLC circuit. The applied voltage remains the same across all components and the supply current gets divided.

Is LCR and RLC circuit same?

Is there a difference between RLC circuit and LCR circuit? There is no difference between an RLC circuit and an LCR circuit except for the order of the symbol represented in the circuit diagram.

What is the power factor of a series RLC circuit when it is subjected to the resonance phenomenon?

Explanation: The power factor for a series RLC circuit in resonance condition is always unity because the current is in phase with the voltage under resonance condition. Φ=00 => cos ϕ = 1 i.e. power factor = 1.

What do you mean by RLC series resonance?

In the RLC series circuit, when the circuit current is in phase with the applied voltage, the circuit is said to be in Series Resonance. Since at resonance the opposition to the flow of current is only resistance (R) of the circuit. At this condition, the circuit draws the maximum current.

What is meant by RLC circuits in series?

A series RLC circuit is one the resistor, inductor and capacitor are connected in series across a voltage supply. The resulting circuit is called series RLC circuit.

How does a RLC circuit work?

In RLC circuit, the most fundamental elements like resistor, inductor and capacitor are connected across a voltage supply. All these elements are linear and passive in nature; i.e. they consume energy rather than producing it and these elements have a linear relationship between voltage and current.

What is the quality factor in a RLC circuit?

The Q factor or quality factor shows the quality of the RLC circuit. While designing a RLC circuit, one should aim to achieve the higher Q-factor. Below is the formula for the Q-factor of a RLC circuit: Q = 1/R * √ (L/C)

Are RLC circuits used in communication systems?

RLC circuits are widely used in a variety of applications such as filters in communications systems, ignition systems in automobiles, defibrillator circuits in biomedical applications, etc. The analysis of RLC circuits is more complex than of the RC circuits we have seen in the previous lab.
