A Parallel RLC Circuit is an electrical circuit where a resistor, inductor, and capacitor are connected in parallel to an AC source, each experiencing the same voltage but different currents.
How does a parallel RLC circuit differ from a series RLC circuit?
In a parallel RLC circuit, components are connected across the same voltage source, leading to different branch currents. In a series RLC circuit, components are connected end-to-end, resulting in the same current through each component.
What is the significance of resonance in a parallel RLC circuit?
Resonance in a parallel RLC circuit occurs when the inductive reactance equals the capacitive reactance, causing the impedance to be purely resistive and maximizing the circuit impedance.
What is the difference between series and parallel RLC circuit in AC circuits?
A series circuit is a circuit in which two components share a common node and the same current flows through them. However, in a parallel circuit, components share two common nodes.
5. What is the phasor diagram in a parallel RLC circuit?
A phasor diagram is a graphical representation showing the phase relationships between the voltage and currents in the circuit. It helps visualize how the resistor’s, inductor’s, and capacitor’s currents relate to the source voltage.
