Is this a faulty question? I don't believe that there is one value of L that would make the circuit overdamped.

In summary, an overdamped RLC circuit is a type of electrical circuit with a damping factor greater than the critical damping factor, resulting in it returning to equilibrium without any oscillation. Faulty overdamped RLC circuits can be caused by damaged components, incorrect wiring, or other issues, and can be identified through testing and measurements. To fix a faulty overdamped RLC circuit, damaged components can be replaced and wiring issues corrected. Overdamped RLC circuits have various applications in electrical engineering, including power supplies, audio filters, and electronic devices.

Yes. It's most likely your teacher copied an old problem and changed critically damped to overdamped to change things up.
FAQ: Overdamped RLC Circuit Faulty Question?
1. What is an overdamped RLC circuit?
An overdamped RLC circuit is a type of electrical circuit that contains a resistor, inductor, and capacitor. In this circuit, the damping factor is greater than the critical damping factor, causing the circuit to return to equilibrium without any oscillation.
2. What causes a faulty overdamped RLC circuit?
A faulty overdamped RLC circuit can be caused by various factors, such as a damaged component, incorrect wiring, or a malfunctioning power source. It can also be caused by an incorrect value or placement of the components in the circuit.
3. How can I identify a faulty overdamped RLC circuit?
A faulty overdamped RLC circuit can be identified by testing the individual components for damage or incorrect values, checking the wiring for any loose connections, and using a multimeter to measure the voltage and current in the circuit. If the values are significantly different from the expected values, the circuit may be faulty.
4. How can I fix a faulty overdamped RLC circuit?
The specific steps to fix a faulty overdamped RLC circuit will depend on the cause of the fault. In general, you can try replacing any damaged components, correcting any wiring issues, and ensuring that the components are correctly placed and have the correct values. If the fault persists, it may be necessary to consult a professional or refer to circuit diagrams for further troubleshooting.
5. What are the applications of overdamped RLC circuits?
Overdamped RLC circuits have various applications in electrical engineering, including in power supplies, audio filters, and signal processing. They are also used in electronic devices such as radios, televisions, and computers.
