**Question 7:** Given the circuit in Figure 16-3, what is the _magnitude_ of the circuit impedance (Z)?

**Description of Figure 16-3:**

The diagram illustrates an electrical circuit that has the following components:

- A source providing 10 V (rms).
- An inductor (`XL`) with an inductive reactance value of 3 kΩ.
- A resistor (`R`) with a resistance value of 8 kΩ.

Additionally, there is another inductive reactance (`XL`) component shown outside of the main loop with a value of 6 kΩ, but it is unclear how it is connected based on the given image.

**Explanation:**

To find the magnitude of the circuit's total impedance (Z), you can use the impedance values of the resistor and inductor. The impedance \( Z \) of a series circuit containing resistors and inductive reactance can be calculated using:

\[
Z = \sqrt{R^2 + X_L^2}
\]

Where:
- \( R \) is the resistance.
- \( X_L \) is the total inductive reactance.

Given inside the circuit:
- \( X_L = 3 \, \text{k}\Omega \)
- \( R = 8 \, \text{k}\Omega \)

Calculate \( Z \) as follows:
\[
Z = \sqrt{(8\, \text{k}\Omega)^2 + (3\, \text{k}\Omega)^2} 
\]
\[
Z = \sqrt{64 + 9} \, \text{k}\Omega
\]
\[
Z = \sqrt{73} \, \text{k}\Omega
\]

Therefore, the magnitude of the circuit impedance \( Z \) is \(\sqrt{73}\, \text{k}\Omega\).
