A lower Q produces a narrower bandwidth.

More Questions from RLC Circuits and Resonance

• XL and XC have opposing effects in an RLC circuit.
• At series resonance, the inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are never equal.
• In a parallel RLC circuit, the smaller reactance determines the net reactance of the circuit.
• In a series RLC circuit, the current is minimum at resonance.
• The reactive voltages, VL and VC, cancel at resonance.
• In a series RLC circuit, the larger reactance determines the net reactance of the circuit.
• Resonance is a condition in a series RLC circuit in which the capacitive and inductive reactances are equal in magnitude.
