Title: Determine resonant frequencies in RLC circuits.
Course: Electronics Technology (17101-II) > Section: Working with Alternating Current (AC) Circuits

Determination should include

- defining
  - RLC circuit
  - high-Q parallel circuit
  - resonance

- applying reactance formulas
- calculating resonant frequency
- stating the reasons why XL must equal XC
- explaining the functions of low-pass, high-pass, and band-stop filter circuits
- troubleshooting filter circuits.

Process/Skill Questions:

- How is resonance different than any other state in an RLC circuit?
- What applied technology makes wide use of tuned resonant frequencies?
- Why must XL equal XC?
