Homework Statement
An RLC circuit has a resonance frequency of 2000/pi hertz. When operating at angular frequency w > w0, reactance of inductance is 12 ohms and reactance of capacitance is 8 ohms. Calculate the values of L and C.
Homework Equations
XL = wL
XC = 1/wC
The Attempt at a Solution
welll, what i thouht was w = resonance frequency which is 2000/pi hertz... so since XL is given (12) and XC is given (8), then I plugged in the numbers and got this.
2000/pi = 636.6 hz...so, XL/w = L
12/636.6hz = .0188 H = L
and, 1/wXC = C which is 1/(636.6)(8) = .000196F = C
Correct or not? I feel like something is missing!
