RLC Circuit

What happens to the voltage across a capacitor in an RC circuit as time increases?

The voltage across the capacitor increases.

What happens to the current through an inductor in an RL circuit as time increases?

The current through the inductor increases.

What is the time constant of an RC circuit?

The time it takes for the voltage across a capacitor to reach approximately 63.2% of its final value.

What is the time constant of an RL circuit?

The time it takes for the current through an inductor to reach approximately 36.8% of its final value.

What type of circuit is commonly used in filters and signal processing?

RC Circuit

What effect does an inductor have on an RL circuit?

It resists changes in current.

What effect does a capacitor have on an RC circuit?

It resists changes in voltage.

What is the resonance frequency of an RLC circuit?
