Post Utme Unn 2021 Physics Objective / Multiple Choice
Question 23 POST_UTME_UNN • 2021 • PHYSICS • objective

A circuit consists of a resistor $R$, an inductor $L$, and a capacitor $C$ connected in series. The circuit is driven by an AC voltage source with a frequency $f$. If the inductive reac\tance $X_L = 10\,\Omega$ and the capacitive reac\tance $X_C = 5\,\Omega$, 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}
D. \sqrt{R^2 + \( X_L + X_C \)^2}
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
\sqrt{R^2 + \( X_L - X_C \)^2}
