    Phasor diagrams for RLC circuit and resonant frequency

    Can someone check if my understanding is correct? At resonant frequency, my understanding is that the magnitude of the reactances of the capacitor and the inductor have the same magnitude but they are 180 degrees out of phase, making the overall impedance of the circuit only consisting of the...

    Amplifier gain in resonant RLC circuit

    Amplifier gain ##A_V## is defined as the ratio of an amplifier's output voltage to its input voltage, i.e. ##\displaystyle\frac{V_R}{V}=\frac{IR}{IZ}=\frac{R}{R}=0.5## at 200 Hz. But this is absurd. Where have I gone wrong? Please nudge me in the right direction.

    RLC Parallel Circuit: Analyzing Current & Voltage at t=0-

    Impedances for RLC circuits in the limit of zero frequency

    If a voltage source is sinusoidal, then we can introduce a phasor map and come up with equations like$$V_0 e^{i \omega t} = I(R + i\omega L + \frac{1}{\omega C} i)$$where ##I## would also differ from ##V## by a complex phase. But if you set ##\omega = 0##, which would appear to correspond to...
