At resonance, XL = XC, so they cancel. Z = R (minimum), and current is maximum.
In Δ-Y conversion, each Y-resistor equals the product of adjacent Δ-resistors divided by the sum of all Δ-resistors.
Bandwidth is inversely proportional to Q-factor. Higher Q means narrower bandwidth. BW = f₀/Q.
For a balanced AC bridge, the product of opposite arm impedances must be equal: Z1×Z3 = Z2×Z4.
At resonance: f = 1/(2π√LC). C = 1/(4π²f²L) = 1/(4π²×10000×0.025) ≈ 101.3 µF.
Thevenin voltage is the open-circuit voltage measured across the load terminals after removing the load.
Q-factor represents selectivity and bandwidth characteristics. For series RLC: Q = ω₀L/R = 1/(ω₀RC) = (1/R)√(L/C).
In a parallel RC circuit, admittances add directly. Y = G + jBC where G = 1/R and BC = ωC.
XL = 2πfL = 2π(50)(0.1) = 31.4 Ω. Z = √(10² + 31.4²) ≈ √(100 + 985.96) ≈ 33 Ω. Closest is 31.4 Ω.
