🔍 Key Concepts

• Series RLC circuit behavior when R = 0 • Vector (phasor) nature of inductive reactance (XL) and capacitive reactance (XC) • Definition of resonant frequency in terms of XL and XC

💭 Think About

• In a purely reactive series circuit (no resistance), how do XL and XC combine when they are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign? • At resonance, what does it mean for the total reactance of the circuit, and what does that imply (or not imply) about resistance? • Is it correct to conclude the impedance is purely resistive when there is actually no resistor in the circuit?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear that reactance (XL, XC) is different from resistance (R) and from impedance (Z), which can include both • Verify what happens to total reactance when XL = XC in series: do they add, subtract, or form some other relationship? • Check whether saying "purely resistive" makes sense in a circuit where R is explicitly zero
