Consider an RLC circuit. The impedance of the circuit increases if R increases. A) always true B) true only if X_L is less than or equal to X_C C) never true D) true only if X_L is greater than or equal to X_C

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The impedance of an RLC circuit is a combination of resistance (R), inductive reactance (XL), and capacitive reactance (XC). Increasing R always increases the total impedance, regardless of the values of XL and XC.
