Resonance in Electrical Circuit

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the resonance frequency of an LC circuit composed of a 33 µF capacitor and a 33 mH inductor. The correct formula for resonance frequency is confirmed as f = 1 / (2π√(LC)). Users are encouraged to double-check their calculations if their results differ from expected outcomes. The resonance frequency is critical for ensuring optimal performance in electrical circuits.

(a)Find the frequency at which a 33 uF capacitor has the same reactance as a 33 mH inductor. (b) What is the resonance frequency of an LC circuit made with this inductor and capacitor. Well I believe the equation I use is 1 / (2 Pie \sqrt{}LC) but when I use it I come out with a answer very different from the real answer. Am I going about the right way with this problem? Thanks!

You are using

f=\frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{LC}}

and this is the correct equation. Perhaps recheck your numbers?
