resistor in previous sections r = 288.6 ohms

in the circuit, xc will be zero. 3. Capacitive and Inductive Reactance Place all three elements in series with the generator. The order is unimportant. . Measure the rms voltage across all possible combinations of one, two, and three elements. At some point, it will be necessary to change the position of two adjacent elements to obtain all possibilities. (Note: If you have freestanding elements, there are seven values to record. If you are using the pre-wired LRC boards, then there will be one less combination available to you, since you can't change the order of the elements.) . Determine the rms current in the circuit using the resistor as in the previous sections. . Using a table, compare the voltages you measured in the first step with the theoretical values obtained by using the rms current and the values of xc and xu calculated in parts 1 and 2. For those combinations involving the inductor, do not forget the internal resistance r. (Note that since the rms current was determined using the resistor, the measured and theoretical values for the voltage across the resistor will be identical.) 4. Resonance
