What is the maximum current of and RLC circuit with R=1.2kΩ, C=0.3F, and L=600μHif the system is driven by an alternating voltage source with f=750Hz, and V=10Vpeak to peak amplitude? (give your answer in mA to the nearest 0.1 mA)
First, we should check what is the natural frequency of the circuit. A circuit at resonance is the one which is operating in a frequency equal to the natural frequency. This happens when the phase between current and emf is zero.
At resonance
,
So, given frequency , and the circuit is not in resonance.
So, For an RLC series circuit, The Peak to peak current is given by
