A pure
LC circuit with negligible resistance oscillates at
, the same resonant frequency as an
RLC circuit. It can serve as a frequency standard or clock circuit—for example, in a digital wristwatch. With a very small resistance, only a very small energy input is necessary to maintain the oscillations. The circuit is analogous to a car with no shock absorbers. Once it starts oscillating, it continues at its natural frequency for some time.
[link] shows the analogy between an
LC circuit and a mass on a spring.

Section summary
The AC analogy to resistance is impedance
, the combined effect of resistors, inductors, and capacitors, defined by the AC version of Ohm’s law:
where
is the peak current and
is the peak source voltage.
Impedance has units of ohms and is given by
.
The resonant frequency
, at which
, is
In an AC circuit, there is a phase angle
between source voltage
and the current
, which can be found from
for a purely resistive circuit or an
RLC circuit at resonance.
The average power delivered to an
RLC circuit is affected by the phase angle and is given by
is called the power factor, which ranges from 0 to 1.
Conceptual questions
Does the resonant frequency of an AC circuit depend on the peak voltage of the AC source? Explain why or why not.
Suppose you have a motor with a power factor significantly less than 1. Explain why it would be better to improve the power factor as a method of improving the motor’s output, rather than to increase the voltage input.

with those found in
[link] in which there was also a resistor.
(a)
at 60.0 Hz,
at 10.0 kHz
(b) These values are close to those obtained in
[link] because at low frequency the capacitor dominates and at high frequency the inductor dominates. So in both cases the resistor makes little contribution to the total impedance.

Quantity demanded refers to the specific amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a give price and within a specific time period. Demand, on the other hand, is a broader concept that encompasses the entire relationship between price and quantity demanded

Economic growth as an increase in the production and consumption of goods and services within an economy.but
Economic development as a broader concept that encompasses not only economic growth but also social & human well being.

What do you think is more important to focus on when considering inequality ?
sir...I just want to ask one question... Define the term contract curve? if you are free please help me to find this answer 🙏

it is a curve that we get after connecting the pareto optimal combinations of two consumers after their mutually beneficial trade offs
