Textbook Question
Chapter 28, Problem 68P
For RLC circuits in which the resistance isn’t too high, the Q factor may be defined as the ratio of the resonant frequency to the difference between the two frequencies where the power dissipated in the circuit is half the power dissipated at resonance. Using suitable approximations, show that this definition leads to Q = ω0L/R, with ω0 the resonant frequency.
