A circuit contains a 305 ohm resistor, a 1.1 micro Farad capacitor, and a 42 mH inductor. At resonance, the impedance is determined to be 336.4 ohms. What is the resistance of the inductor?

The resistance of the inductor at resonance is 258.76 ohms.

Explanation:

Given;

resistance of the resistor, R = 305 ohm

capacitance of the capacitor, C = 1.1 μF = 1.1 x 10⁻⁶ F

inductance of the inductor, L = 42 mH = 42 x 10⁻³ H = 0.042 H

At resonance the inductive reactance is equal to capacitive reactance.

Where;

F₀ is the resonance frequency

The inductive reactance is given by;

Therefore, the resistance of the inductor at resonance is 258.76 ohms.
