RLC Circuits and Resonance - Engineering

Q1:

A series resonant circuit is commonly called a tank circuit.

A True

B False

ANS:B - False

For Tank circuits, the resonant frequency is determined by the values of Inductance (L) and Capacitance (C). For this reason, whenever the inductor and capacitor components are connected in series or in parallel, they have a resonant frequency. And as previously stated, resonance in tank circuits occurs when XC = XL.
