Question:

A capacitor, a coil, and two resistors of equal resistance are arranged in an AC circuit, as shown in Figure P33.58. An AC source provides an emf of 20.0 V (rms) at a frequency of 60.0 Hz. When the double-throw switch S is open, as shown in the figure, the rms current is 183 mA. When the switch is closed in position 1, the rms current is 298 mA. When the switch is closed in position 2, the rms current is 137 mA. Determine the values of R, C, and L. Is more than one set of values possible?
