A resistor $R$ is connected in series with an inductor $L$ and a capacitor $C$. The circuit is driven by an AC voltage source with a frequency $f$. If the inductive reac\tance $X_L = 2\Omega$ and the capacitive reac\tance $X_C = 3\Omega$, what is the impedance $Z$ of the circuit?

Answer Options

A. \sqrt{R^2 + \( X_L - X_C \)^2}
Correct Answer B. \sqrt{R^2 + \( X_L + X_C \)^2}
C. \sqrt{R^2 + \( X_L - X_C \)^2 + X_C^2}
D. \sqrt{R^2 + \( X_L + X_C \)^2 + X_C^2}
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
\sqrt{R^2 + \( X_L + X_C \)^2}
