NEET Physics RLC Circuits MCQ Question
A series RLC circuit is shown with a resistor (R), inductor (L), and capacitor (C) connected in series with an AC voltage source. Which of the following statements best describes the behavior of the circuit at its resonance frequency?

The impedance of the circuit is purely resistive.
The impedance of the circuit is purely inductive.
The impedance of the circuit is purely capacitive.
The impedance of the circuit is maximized.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
At resonance, the inductive reactance equals the capacitive reactance, resulting in the impedance being purely resistive, as they cancel each other out.
