RLC circuit
An RLC circuit is an electrical setup that includes three main components: a resistor (R) that limits current, an inductor (L) that stores energy in a magnetic field, and a capacitor (C) that stores energy in an electric field. When connected to a power source, the circuit can oscillate, meaning the current and voltage regularly rise and fall. This behavior is similar to a swinging pendulum or a tuning fork. RLC circuits are used in radios, TVs, and signal processing to filter, tune, or generate specific frequencies. The interplay of these components controls how signals behave within the circuit.
