An AC circuit has R = 100 Ω, C = 2 μF and L = 80 mH, connected in series. The quality factor of the circuit is

Calculation:
The formula for the quality factor (Q) of an LC circuit is given by:

Q = (1 / R) × √(L / C)

Where:

• R = resistance = 100 Ω
• L = inductance = 80 mH = 80 × 10^-3 H
• C = capacitance = 2 μF = 2 × 10^-6 F

Substituting the values into the formula:

Q = (1 / 100) × √((80 × 10^-3) / (2 × 10^-6))

Q = (1 / 100) × √(40 × 10³)

Q = (1 / 100) × 200

Q = 2

The quality factor of the circuit is 2.
