Resonance, Bandwidth & Q Factor
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: An AC circuit undergoes electrical resonance if it contains either a capacitor or an inductor.
Statement II: An AC circuit containing a pure capacitor or a pure inductor consumes high power due to its non-zero power factor.
In the light of above statements, choose the correct answer form the options given below:
Show answer and solution
Answer: (a)
- Statement I: resonance needs both and so that ; one of them alone cannot resonate. False.
- Statement II: for pure or pure , , power factor , so average power is zero. False.
- So the answer is (a) both statements are false.
