Physics 230 Prelab 9

 

 

 

The LRC series circuit shown above is connected to an AC voltage source.  The graph on the right shows the current in the circuit.  The slider allows you to adjust the frequency (in Hz) of the voltage source.

When you click the start button, the current as a function of time will be drawn in the graph.  Start.

By adjusting the frequency with the slider, or by entering a frequency value in the box and then hitting enter, find the resonant frequency of the LRC circuit.

Submit your answer for the resonant frequency in the box below.
