SUMMARY
An underdamped RLC circuit is indeed possible and is characterized by a specific relationship between resistance, inductance, and capacitance. In such circuits, the damping ratio is less than one, leading to oscillatory behavior. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the values of resistance (R), inductance (L), and capacitance (C) to achieve underdamped conditions. Key formulas and circuit analysis techniques are essential for designing and analyzing these circuits effectively.
