I am just wondering what is the proof of the equation
2*pi*f = 1/√(LC)
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Welcome to PF;
The relation is derived from the differential equation describing the flow of charge in an ideal RCL circuit.
 
So what is the differential equation describing the flow of charge in an ideal RCL circuit?
 
The resonant frequency is when XL = Xc
That is when 2∏fL = 1/2∏fC
When this condition is satisfied V is in phase with I.
