Consider an AC circuit
with a source and an
inductor
The current in the
circuit is impeded by
the back emf of the
inductor
The voltage across the
inductor always leads
the current by 90°
Summary
Sinusoidal response of series RL circuits
When both resistance and inductance are in a series
circuit, the phase angle between the applied voltage and
total current is between 0 and 90, depending on the
values of resistance and reactance.

The RLC Series Circuit
The resistor,
inductor, and
capacitor can be
combined in a
circuit
The current in the
circuit is the same
at any time and
varies sinusoidally
with time
Current and Voltage Relationships in an
RLC Circuit
The instantaneous
voltage across the
resistor is in phase with
the current
The instantaneous

Impedance and Ohm’s Law
Resonance occurs at
the frequency, ƒo,
where the current has
its maximum value
To achieve maximum
